Excerpt from Economics of Electrical Distribution
Electrical Engineering is more than the application Of the principles Of electricity to the design, construction and operation Of a machine, a power plant or a distribution system to the end that it fulfills satisfactorily its intended purpose. It is highly desirable that efficiency be also accomplished. Further than this, it should be the aim of all engineers to develop efficiency in its broader sense, that is, by the realization of maximum economy in both design, construction and operation.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book guides the reader through the fundamentals of electricity and its use in the design, construction, and operation of electrical distribution systems. Its unique perspective lies in its emphasis on the application of economics to the field, a consideration often overlooked despite its central role in engineering efficiency. Written in the early 20th century, this book provides a valuable historical account of the development of this field, highlighting the progression from rudimentary electrical distribution systems to the more complex and interconnected networks of today. The author's insights into the cost and energy considerations involved in electrical distribution, though shaped by the technological constraints of the time, remain largely applicable in modern-day practice. The book delves into the optimal design of transmission lines, power circuits, and secondary distribution systems, striking a balance between theoretical principles and practical engineering considerations. Through detailed examples and case studies, it illustrates how to determine the most economical design for specific load characteristics, voltage requirements, and environmental conditions. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of the economic factors governing electrical distribution systems, providing a valuable resource for students, practicing engineers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this field. Its historical perspective and emphasis on economic principles make it a unique and insightful contribution to the literature on electrical engineering.
