This book sets out statistical methods which can be used in the preparation, execution, evaluation and interpretation of experiments in high-voltage engineering, of a random nature.

With the rapid growth of wind energy worldwide, challenges in the operation and control of wind turbine systems are becoming increasingly important. This book conveys up to date theoretical and practical techniques applicable to the control of wind turbine systems.

This timely overview of silicon solar cell surface passivation, written by the leading experts in the field, is a key read for students and researchers working with silicon solar cells, as well as solar cell manufacturers.

An uninterrutible power supply (UPS) can avoid potentially catastrophic havoc caused by electricity supply line disturbances. This book is a comprehensive guide to the various types of UPS systems available, showing how they may be specified and applied effectively.

This book successfully details the theoretical and practical background to low voltage conducted disturbances including harmonics, voltage fluctuation/flicker and asymmetrical voltages.

To some extent the wave and tidal generation industry is following in the wake of the wind industry, learning from the growing experience of offshore wind farm deployment. This book combines wind industry lessons with wave and tidal field knowledge to explore the main reliability and availability issues facing this growing industry.

This book shows how vacuum arcs and current interruption in vacuum are different from gaseous arcs and interruption in gas circuit breakers, and leads the reader to understand these differences.

This book is intended to explain the technical principles involved in the many AC variable speed drive systems available today. It deals with all the DC link inverter and direct AC to AC converter systems that are in commercial use.
