Methodology and Technology for Power System Grounding 

Grounding is the fundamental measures to ensure the safe
operation of power systems, including power apparatus and
control/monitoring systems, and guarantee the personal safety.
Grounding technology is an interdiscipline involving electrical
engineering, high voltage technology, electric safety,
electromagnetics, numerical analysis, and geological
exploration

Methodology and Technology for Power System
Grounding:

* Covers all topics related to power system grounding

* Presents fundaments and theories of grounding systems

* Well balances technology and methodology related to grounding
system design

* Helps to understand the grounding analysis softwares

* Highlights the advanced research works in the field of
grounding systems

* Comprehensively introduces numerical analysis methods

* Discovers impulse ionization phenomenon of soil around the
grounding conductors

* Touches on lightning impulse characteristics of grounding
devices for towers and buildings

As a comprehensive treatment of the topic, Methodology and
Technology for Power System Grounding is ideal for engineers
and researchers in power system, lightning protection, and
grounding. The book will also better equip postgraduates, senior
undergraduate students in electrical engineering.
