Modern Power System

Arindam Ghosh authored Modern Power System, 1st Edition, a 2026 textbook published by Wiley-IEEE Press that establishes a mathematical foundation for electrical power network analysis. The text integrates steady-state grid calculations with contemporary transmission technologies to support upper-level electrical engineering curricula.

The book organizes its technical coverage around core network calculations and dynamic transmission control. It details load flow procedures and systematic fault studies to evaluate power grid behavior during normal operations and network disturbances. Expanding into modern grid technologies, the text examines Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS), reactive power compensation techniques, and high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission infrastructure.

Designed for electrical engineering students at the undergraduate and graduate levels who specialize in power engineering, this 1st Edition aligns with advanced departmental degree tracks. The volume also provides a practical analytical reference for practicing power system engineers who oversee utility grid operations and industrial installations.
