Electrical Transmission and Distribution Reference Book

[rczugh]

Where can I purchase the reference book titled Electrical Transmission and Distribution Reference Book, by Westinghouse? The earliest edition I have seen is 1950. The latest edition I have seen is 1964. Is this the latest edition?

ABB publishes it now:

Most of the material has remained the same, with a couple of new chapters added.

I bought the book from ABB recently for $250. It's money well spent.

Suggestion: Please, notice that the book does not cover T&D protection. The ABB site currently does not post any suitable book covering T&D protective relays and coordinations.

Thank you all.

I've had "Introductory Circuit Analysis" and ABBs "Protective Relaying Theory and Applications" book (ISBN: 0-8247-9152-5) for a few years. I was recently given a "J & P Transformer Book” and just received my "Electrical Transmission and Distribution Reference Book". These books are really helping me put it all together. Can anyone recommend a good book that will fit right in and compliment the others?

The Cooper Distribution System Protection Manual is a good source for distribution, covering fault current studies and coordination, particularly fuses and reclosers. According to

it is currently out of print.

All the previously mentioned books are excellent references. The Cooper book is excellent for distribution systems and the Old Westinghouse T&D book has a lot of good information. The ABB version is still a little dated though for the price even if it does include a CD. Another good and more up to date reference is the Electric Power Engineering Handbook published by CRC Press. CRC Press has a whole series of excellent power engineering titles. Marcel Dekker is another publisher that also offers quite a few good electric power engineering books.

Why don't you try schnieder tecnical cahiers

This has some information on transmission line relaying and it's free.

If you can find it the Westinghouse book "Applied Protective Relaying" is also good.
