Siemens Power Engineering Guide Transmission and Distribution 4th Edition

Foreword

This Power Engineering Guide is devised as an aid to electrical engineers who are engaged in the planning and specifying of electrical power generation, transmission, distribution, control, and utilization systems. Care has been taken to include the most important application, performance, physical and shipping data of the equipment listed in the guide which is needed to perform preliminary layout and engineering tasks for industrial and utility-type installations. The equipment listed in this guide is designed, rated, manufactured and tested in accordance with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) recommendations. However, a number of standardized equipment items in this guide are designed to take other national standards into account besides the above codes, and can be rated and tested to ANSI/ NEMA, BS, CSA, etc. On top of that, we manufacture a comprehensive range of transmission and distribution equipment specifically to ANSI/NEMA codes and regulations. Two thirds of our product range is less than five years old. For our customers this means energy efficiency, environmental compatibility, reliability and reduced life cycle cost. For details, please see the individual product listings or inquire. Whenever you need additional information to select suitable products from this guide, or when questions about their application arise, simply call your local Siemens office.
