Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

When John Grainger began revising William Stevenson's classic Elements of Power System Analysis, he realized that a complete modernization was in order. By the time he finished, an entirely new book was written, re-titled Power System Analysis. Covering such topics as power flow, power system stability and transmission lines, Power System Analysis teaches the fundamental topics of power system analysis using logical discussions and numerous examples. The new chapter on power system state estimation incorporates the latest developments in the field, and the discussion of system control covers economic factors of line losses and penalty factors. The loyal following earned by Stevenson will surely enjoy the modern power system analysis presented here.

Pretty good book

March 8, 2014

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I got it to prep for the P.E. and it helped. It is dry but has the information in a mostly accessible form.

I used it for symmetric components and a few transmission line concepts. I think it might have had some synchronous generator stuff too, though I found other texts to be better for motors.

Not a student textbook - students beware

November 9, 2009

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I am in a class that requires this book, and let me just let everyone aware that this book is not a true text book. For those that are new to this field, this is one tough book to start with. I wish my school would select a different book.

My problems with this book as a new student trying to learn power analysis:
1- No step-by-step methods: it goes from setup of a problem to the answer.
2- Unfriendly examples: you get examples that were already explained within the reading.
3- No appendix that has formulas or basic information: since this is not a text book, this problem just shows that in a textbook you have them and here they are not included.
4- Jumps into the supject: This is assuming that you know everything by heart before going into detailed subjects.

For what this book is, I am sure it does it well - for those that are in the industry and want a supplement to help your daily needs, then this might be fine. For those that are new students in the power engineering/ electrical engineering that want a book to learn from, I advise to look for an honest text book.

This book is Awesome!

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This book was highly recommended by a lot of people when taking the P.E. exam. It will teache you concepts that may have been kind of "foggy" in your regular course of study. I have highlighter marked all through my book..and YES, I did pass the P.E. exam. :-)

Excellent text, I used an earlier edition in college ...

Excellent text, I used an earlier edition in college 38 years ago and bought this as a reference as the old one was wore out. Recommend it for any engineer working in power systems.

Excellent Power Engineering reference.

Great reference. My copy cuts off Midway through the glossary, which is why I only gave 4 stars.
