Distribution of Electrical Power: Lecture Notes of Distribution of Electrical Power Course

By Dr. Hidaia Mahmood Alassouli

This book includes my lecture notes for electrical power distribution book. The fundamentals of electrical power distribution are applied to various distribution system layouts and the function of common distribution system substations and equipment. The book introduces the design procedures and protection methods for power distribution systems of consumer installations. Circuit simulation and practical laboratories are utilised to reinforce concepts.

The book is divided to different learning outcomes

• CLO 1- Discuss the fundamental concepts related to electrical distribution systems.
• CLO 2- Explain the role of distribution substations and related equipment.

I am Dr. Hidaia Mahmood Mohamed Alassouli. I completed my PhD degree in Electrical Engineering from Czech Technical University by February 2003, and my M. Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from Bahrain University by June 1995. I completed also one study year of most important courses in telecommunication and computer engineering courses in Islamic university in Gaza. So, I covered most important subjects in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering and Telecommunications Engineering during my study. My nationality is Palestinian from Gaza Strip.I obtained a lot of certified courses in MCSE, SPSS, Cisco (CCNA), A+, Linux.I worked as Electrical, Telecommunicating and Computer Engineer in a lot of institutions. I worked also as a computer networking administrator. I had considerable undergraduate teaching experience in several types of courses in many universities. I handled teaching the most important subjects in Electrical and Telecommunication and Computer Engineering. I could publish a lot of papers a top-tier journals and conference proceedings, besides I published a lot of books in Publishing and Distribution houses.I wrote a lot of important Arabic articles on online news websites. I also have my own magazine website that I publish on it all my articles: http://www.anticorruption.000space.comI am an Author publishing books on kdp.amazon.comand many other book stores such as Google, Apple.com, writinglife.kobo.com, Lulu.com, feiyr.com, blurb.com, bookrix.com, barnesandnoble.com, notionpress.com, ingramspark.com and others .
