GRAEME VERTIGAN is a consulting engineer working in the Australian power supply industry. He has delivered courses on Energy Metering for the national electricity market operator since 2009, and was formerly the senior electrical engineer at a large Tasmanian zinc refinery. He was also employed as a part time lecturer at the University of Tasmania for many years.
"This book combines the author?s rich experience in industry and teaching expertise in university. It covers the fundamental topics of AC circuits, and the application of those theories are discussed with numerous examples as well as the requirements of Engineering Standards. The writing style is logical and explicit, while illustrations and diagrams are with great accuracy, facilitating readers to have a systematic and in-depth understanding. Overall, I think this book can be an invaluable guide for recent graduate engineers working in power industry."-- Adrian Chen, Electrical Engineer, Moolarben Coal Operations Pty Ltd, Australia?This is a refreshingly practical text which covers a wide range of topics relating to AC power systems. The book is divided into two parts with part one providing a broad overview of AC power systems and a review of fundamental AC circuit theory. Part two of the book covers specific areas of AC power systems in more detail with chapters on three phase transformers, voltage and current measurement, energy metering, harmonics and power system protection. One standout feature of this book is the writing style which I found to be very straight forward and easy to read. Additionally, excellent diagrams and illustrations work well to reinforce the subject material. The text is very well referenced with a list of sources provided at the conclusion of each chapter. The industry based examples in the text work well to link electrical engineering theory and practice and as such this book should find appeal with both undergraduate students studying a course of electrical engineering and recent graduates.?- James Lamont, Electrical Engineering Technical Officer, Deakin University, Australia?..written with practice in mind, enhancing its readability... the book covers the theory well, while not forgetting other aspects such as operations and safety. Given Graeme?s engineering practice, along with his academic work, he has been able to write a book that will serve engineering students well but also continue to serve them in their work place.?- Robbie Bell | Electrical Engineer, Hydro Tasmania, Australia?Had I read this text ten years ago, my transition to the workforce would have been much easier. As a graduate electrical power engineer I found there was a distinct lack of resources to help close the gap between academia and industry.The author, who is clearly accomplished across both areas, seamlessly guides the reader through challenging concepts while equipping them for further application.AC Circuits and Power Systems in Practice is a must-read for undergraduates, recent graduates, and experienced electrical professionals alike.?-Tim Sutton MIEAust CPEng NER, Senior Network Planning Engineer, Tasmanian Networks Pty Ltd, Australia?This is a refreshingly practical text which covers a wide range of topics relating to AC power systems.
