The theory and fundamentals of relaying continue to constitute the major part of this edition which includes concepts and practices that add another dimension to the study of power system protection. Contains new material covering the monitoring of power system performance and fault analysis, a section on power plant auxiliary systems and an account of the emerging technology of Static VAR Compensators. Distribution protection concepts have been expanded to bridge the gap between the protection of distribution and transmission systems. The Subject Index has been significantly revised to facilitate reference from equipment and operating perspectives.

From the Back Cover
The previous two editions of Power System Relaying offer comprehensive and accessible coverage of the theory and fundamentals of relaying and have been widely adopted on university and industry courses worldwide. With the third edition, the authors have added new and detailed descriptions of power system phenomena such as stability, system-wide protection concepts and discussion of historic outages. Power System Relaying, 3rd Edition continues its role as an outstanding textbook on power system protection for senior and graduate students in the field of electric power engineering and a reference book for practising relay engineers, and publishes in tandem with Arun Phadke being awarded the Benjamin Franklin Medal from the Franklin Institute in honor of his work in the field of electrical engineering.
- Provides the student with an understanding of power system protection principles and an insight into the phenomena involved.
- Discusses in detail the emerging technologies of adaptive relaying, hidden failures, wide area measurement, global positioning satellites and the specific application of digital devices.
- Includes relay designs such as electromechanical, solid-state and digital relays to illustrate the advantages and disadvantages of each.
- Re-examines traditional equipment protection practices to include new concepts such as transmission line differential protection, load encroachment on distance relay characteristics, distributed generation systems, and techniques to improve protection system response to power system events.
- Analyzes system performance through oscillographs and alarms schemes.
- Features problems to be worked through at the end of each chapter.

Good Book,
By
This review is from: Power System Relaying (RSP) (Hardcover)
I used the first edition of this book during my undergraduate studies. The book is a good introduction to power system protection, but it's doesn't provide in depth details about the topics covered. The changes made to the 3rd edition are relatively small compare to the 2nd edition with some information added about wide area measurement and PMUs. The book is a good introduction for power system relaying but if you are looking for a reference book I highly recommend the book by P.M. Anderson "Power system protection".
