Distribution systems have changed. Solar interconnections, smart inverters, automated switching, and advanced metering are no longer specialized add-ons — they are now part of the everyday feeder a working engineer or technician has to understand.
The Electric Power Distribution Handbook is a complete, fifteen-chapter reference that follows a modern distribution system exactly as it is actually built: starting from underlying electrical fundamentals, through substations and transformers, overhead and underground construction, grounding, protection and coordination, voltage regulation and power quality, distribution automation and SCADA, reclosers and capacitor banks, and into the areas most legacy references still leave out entirely — distributed energy resource interconnection under IEEE 1547, service entrance and smart metering, and the reliability and safety practices that hold an entire system together.
Every chapter follows the same discipline: clear explanation of the underlying principles, fully worked numerical examples with every calculation shown step by step, practice problems with a complete answer key, and original technical diagrams and calculated charts rather than generic stock art. Concepts introduced early — voltage drop, symmetrical components, per-unit calculations — are cross-referenced consistently every time they reappear in a later, more advanced context, so the book reads as one connected system rather than fifteen disconnected topics. A complete back matter — glossary, formula quick-reference, applicable codes and standards, and a section-referenced index built to stay accurate across future editions — makes this a book you can actually use at a desk or in the field, not just read once.
Whether you are a working distribution engineer, a field technician preparing for certification, or an electrical engineering student who wants one consistent reference instead of a dozen scattered sources, this handbook is built to be the one you keep on the shelf — or the one on the truck.
