Power Systems (5th Edition)

Power System Analysis and Design (Fifth Edition) By J. Duncan Glover, Mulukutla S. Sarma, and Thomas Overbye

A leading text for introducing students to the basic concepts of power systems while equipping them with real-world design skills, not just theory. This edition highlights physical concepts alongside the necessary mathematical techniques, developing both theory and modeling from simple beginnings so students can extend these principles to new and complex situations with confidence. It's supported by case studies drawn from real utility and industry scenarios, PowerWorld Simulator examples, and design projects that push beyond pure analysis into practical engineering decisions.

Topics commonly covered include an introduction to electric power systems and industry structure, fundamentals of AC power and three-phase circuits, power transformers, transmission line parameters and models, power flow analysis, symmetrical faults, symmetrical components and unsymmetrical faults, system protection, power system controls, transient stability, and power system economics.

Key features:

• Real-world case studies opening each chapter, grounding theory in industry practice

• PowerWorld Simulator examples and problems integrated throughout

• Three full design projects that build practical, applied engineering skills

• Flexible chapter organization suited to one-semester course planning

• Large set of worked examples and both calculator- and computer-based problems

Perfect for:

• Undergraduate electrical engineering students taking a power systems course

• Students with prior coursework in circuit theory, differential equations, and matrix algebra

• Students who want strong design-project experience alongside theory

• Anyone wanting a modern, up-to-date power systems reference with software integration
