Electric power transmission and distribution systems are extremely vulnerable to adverse weather conditions. It appeats to many people that extteme weather is becoming more frequent and also more violent. It has been suggested that this is due to increased heat and humidity in Earth s environment, leading to increases in both rain and snowfall. The effect of... [Pg.426]

The North American electric power transmission system has been described as the largest, most complex machine ever built by humanity. It is a massive network of generating stations, transmission lines, substations, distribution lines, motors, and other electrical loads all interdependently linked for the conversion, transportation, and control of electrical energy. Approximately 60 percent of all energy utilized in the United States passes through the interconnected electric power system. The major goal of the system is to most efficiently and reliably deliver electric power from generating stations to residential, commercial, and industrial consumers. [Pg.433]

Tesla arrived in New York in 1884 and was hired by Edison. Edison understood Tesla s ability but remained unconvinced by his new employee s insistence on the use of alternating current for electrical power transmission. Nevertheless, Tesla accepted his assignment to work on improving Edison s direct-current method, which was then in use. Working long hours Tesla increased the system output and asked Edison for a 50,000 bonus, which Tesla understood he was to receive. Edison refused, claiming that the bonus had only been a joke. Tesla quit Edison s employ, and thereafter relations were strained between the two men. [Pg.1123]

While discussing vibrations we may ask whether 60 cycle electromagnetic field fluctuations caused by electrical power transmission can affect the human body Considerable effort has been expended in addressing this question. The tentative conclusion is that such effects, if they exist, are extremely difficult to detect. However, the possibility has not been disproven.965... [Pg.1801]

The uses of aluminum are similar to those of the light metals, some of which have previously been discussed under magnesium. Aluminum is also used in fabricating wire cables for electric-power transmission lines in the manufacture of kitchen utensils, furniture, and paint and in producing a wide variety of other useful articles. In connection with the general topic of alloys, attention is called to several important alloys containing aluminum. [Pg.526]

The car truck is also equipped with a power supply soince, an observation system, control equipment including power automatic machinery and a transceiver (another option is also possible of electric-power transmission using trolley or a rail with pulse-code modulation of steering commands). [Pg.371]
