The IEEE Standards Association has released the Power Transmission and Distribution Standards Collection: VuSpec containing the latest standards, guides, and recommended practices of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE) Transmission and Distribution Committee. This collection represents a complete resource for professional engineers looking for best practices and techniques treatment of all matters related to the design, theoretical and experimental performance, installation, and service operation of parts of electric power systems, which serve to transmit electric energy between the generating sources and substations or customer points of common coupling through AC or DC lines.
The collection covers the analysis and treatment of the following topics:
- Overhead and underground AC and DC T&D systems
- Flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS); overhead conductors
- Environmental impact of transmission lines
- Lightning phenomena
- Secondary network systems
- Insulated line conductors
- Structural coordination and mechanical problems of transmission lines
- Switching surges and overvoltage phenomena
- Insualtion coordination (jointly with other Committees)
- Inductive coordination
- Corona, electric fields and magnetic fields
- Towers, poles, insualtors and hardware
- Shunt and series capacitors
- Engineering in the safety, maintenance, and operation of lines
- Harmonics and power quality
- Distributed resources and distributed generation
- Superconductivity analysis and devices
- Integration of renewable energy resources into T&D systems
- Security in T&D systems
