Electrical power: generation, transmission, distribution, switchgear and protection, utilization of electrical energy and electric traction in MKS units

— Uppal, S.L. - Nama Orang;

The book Electrical Power by Dr. S. L. Uppal (often co-authored in later editions with Prof. S. Rao) is a comprehensive textbook that covers the full spectrum of electrical power engineering, including power generation (thermal, hydro, nuclear, diesel, gas turbine, MHD, and renewable sources), transmission, and distribution systems. It delves into load curves, power factor correction, reactive power compensation, and high-voltage systems like HVDC and EHV AC. The book also discusses overhead lines, underground cables, corona effect, system stability, insulation coordination, fault analysis (both symmetrical and unsymmetrical), and protective relaying with switchgear systems. Additionally, it explores the utilization of electrical energy in lighting, heating, electric traction (railway systems), electrolysis, and electric drives. Designed for engineering students and professionals, the book includes theoretical explanations, practical design considerations, diagrams, formulas, and exam-oriented questions—making it a core reference in the field of electrical power systems.
