'Switchgear Design, Operation, and Maintenance using Industry Standards: Protective Mechanisms, Sensing Technology, and Communication Standards ' is a practical handbook from both industry experts and academics covering the latest developments in switchgear. This book breaks down cutting-edge practical techniques according to the hierarchy of switchgear operations, with an emphasis on critical technologies for automation in the energy transition. Following a helpful refresher on switchgear fundamentals, Part I examines essential safety considerations from fault identification and resolution to DC-type circuit breakers and other protective mechanisms. Part II sets out operating principles and testing procedures for reliable smart substations, including communication protocols, validation, and cyber-security. Finally, Part III considers essential operational maintenance such as circuit-breaker maintenance, and the critical function of high-voltage DC switchgear for the energy transition. An up-to-date helping hand for the transfer from university programs to industry, ' Switchgear Design, Operation, and Maintenance using Industry Standards ' will allow professionals to design, operate, and maintain the smart, automated substations the energy transition needs.
