High Voltage Engineering Fundamentals

High Voltage Engineering Fundamentals, Third Edition provides a thorough discussion of the basics of high voltage laboratory techniques and phenomena, seamlessly combining them with the principles governing the design of high voltage insulation. It is an ideal text for students, utility engineers, designers, and operators of high voltage equipment.

This entirely revised edition reflects current practice, including major coverage of the latest instrumentation, the use of electronegative gases such as sulfur hexafluoride, modern diagnostic techniques, and high voltage testing procedures.

• Melds the basics of high voltage laboratory techniques and phenomena with the principles governing the design of high voltage insulation
• Covers the latest instrumentation in the field
• Explains current methods, including the use of electronegative gases like sulfur hexafluoride
• Includes discussions of modern diagnostic techniques and high voltage testing procedures presented with a statistical approach
