"The "Evaluating Tree Defects" field guide is an excellent resource for seeing the different types of tree defects, guidelines for evaluating those defects, and guidelines for evaluating tree decay. The field guide is often used by Arborist's to show to their customers while evaluating their trees. The field guide is 34 pages with 58 color photographs and 43 illustrations. The field guide explains how to evaluate the major categories of tree defects with eighteen easy to use field guidelines. There are several examples of each type of tree defect. Additionally, there are sections on the common defects of each species, resistance to decay by species, basic tree mechanics, terminology, and safety issues for arborists."--Pub. desc.
Of the "big three" components of electrical infrastructure, distribution typically gets the least attention. In fact, a thorough, up-to-date treatment of the subject hasn’t been published in years, yet deregulation and technical changes have increased the need for better information. Filling this void, the Electric Power Distribution Handbook delivers comprehensive, cutting-edge coverage of the electrical aspects of power distribution systems. The first few chapters of this pragmatic guidebook focus on equipment-oriented information and applications such as choosing transformer connections, sizing and placing capacitors, and setting regulators. The middle portion discusses reliability and power quality, while the end tackles lightning protection, grounding, and safety. The Second Edition of this CHOICE Award winner features: 1 new chapter on overhead line performance and 14 fully revised chapters incorporating updates from several EPRI projects New sections on voltage optimization, arc flash, and contact voltage Full-color illustrations throughout, plus fresh bibliographic references, tables, graphs, methods, and statistics Updates on conductor burndown, fault location, reliability programs, tree contacts, automation, and grounding and personnel protection Access to an author-maintained support website, distributionhandbook.com, with problems sets, resources, and online apps An unparalleled source of tips and solutions for improving performance, the Electric Power Distribution Handbook, Second Edition provides power and utility engineers with the technical information and practical tools they need to understand the applied science of distribution.
