Sinopsis

Power system protection systems have three basic components: Instrument transformers, Relays, Circuit breakers
The function of the CT is to reproduce in its secondary winding a current I’ that is proportional to the primary current I. The CT converts primary currents in the kiloamp range to secondary currents in the 0–5 ampere range for convenience of measurement.

The function of the relay is to discriminate between normal operation and fault conditions. The OC relay in Figure 2 has an operating coil, which is connected to the CT secondary winding, and a set of contacts. When |I’| exceeds a specified ‘‘pickup’’ value, the operating coil causes the normally open contacts to close. When the relay contacts close, the trip coil of the circuit breaker is energized, which then causes the circuit breaker to open.

System-protection components have the following design criteria:

	Reliability: Operate dependably when fault conditions occur, even after remaining idle for months or years. Failure to do so may result in costly damages.
	Selectivity: Avoid unnecessary, false trips.
	Speed: Operate rapidly to minimize fault duration and equipment damage. Any intentional time delays should be precise.
	Economy: Provide maximum protection at minimum cost.
	Simplicity: Minimize protection equipment and circuitry.

Since it is impossible to satisfy all these criteria simultaneously, compromises must be made in system protection.
The book consists from the following sections:
1.  Chapter 1: Power System Faults:
2. Chapter 2: Instrument Transformers.
3. Chapter 3: Overcurrent and Earth Fault Protection Relays.
4. Chapter 4: Radial System Protection.
5. Chapter 5: Zones of Protection.
6. Chapter 6: Differential Relays.
7. Chapter 7: Distance Relays.
8. Chapter 8: Transformer Protection.
9. Chapter 9: Generator Protection.
10. Chapter 10: Busbar Protection.
11. Chapter 11: Circuit Breakers.
12. Chapter 12: Fuses.
13. Chapter 13: References.

A vibrant exploration of the world's newest language—where it came from, how it works, and where it's going. 
 
 
 
We are surrounded by emoji. They appear in politics, movies, drug deals, our sex lives, and more. But emoji's impact has never been explored in full. In this rollicking tech and pop culture history, Keith Houston follows emoji from its birth in 1990s Japan, traces its Western explosion in the 2000s, and considers emoji's ever-expanding lexicon. Named for the world's most popular pictogram, Face with Tears of Joy tells the whole story of emoji for the first time.

Diabetes Is Not Always Permanent - Diabetes evolves slowly and can reverse its slow growth back to your normal health - cover

Diabetes Is Not Always Permanent...

Diabetic symptoms are not always easy to identify. Type 2 diabetes, type 1 diabetes, prediabetes, and gestational diabetes, all stem from the same cause but the medical community places a subcategory to help them take into consideration other age-related issues that might be present. All these signs of diabetes can be found in this book, and explain the reasons why they are happening, so you can better understand how to respond to this diagnosis. Basically, the pancreas has lost the ability to convert sugars into energy causing the diabetic to often start taking insulin shots. 
  
Diabetes is a very serious disease that can bring a lifetime of medical issues, including death, so understanding how it got started, how to prevent it, and in some cases reverse it, is vital if you have been diagnosed. Neuropathy, cardio-vascular issues, blindness, and sores that won't heal can often be corrected providing you have the correct information and learn how to reverse existing symptoms. However, under no circumstances should this book be used to replace our doctor's advice. Everyone is unique, and he will have more information about your personal condition than I do, so learn how to respond to diabetes, and once your chemistry is back in balance, reverse symptoms, and let your doctor decide if it is time to discontinue any treatments.

Witches, Midwives, and Nurses examines how women-led healing was delegitimized to make way for patriarchy, capitalism, and the emerging medical industry. 
 
 
 
As we watch another agonizing attempt to shift the future of healthcare in the United States, we are reminded of the longevity of this crisis, and how firmly entrenched we are in a system that doesn't work. 
 
 
 
First published by the Feminist Press in 1973, Witches, Midwives, and Nurses is an essential book about the corruption of the medical establishment and its historic roots in witch hunters. In this new and updated edition, Barbara Ehrenreich and Deirdre English delve into the current fascination with and controversies about witches, exposing our fears and fantasies. They build on their classic exposé on the demonization of women healers and the political and economic monopolization of medicine. This quick history brings us up-to-date, exploring today's changing attitudes toward childbirth, alternative medicine, and modern-day witches.

Vector-borne diseases represent one of the most complex and challenging frontiers of global health. These infections, transmitted through the bites of mosquitoes, ticks, and other arthropod vectors, affect hundreds of millions of people annually and have shaped human history, migration patterns, and societal development for millennia. This comprehensive exploration delves into three of the most significant vector-borne threats—Malaria, Dengue Fever, and Lyme Disease—illuminating the sophisticated biological mechanisms, ecological dynamics, and human factors that enable these pathogens to transcend the boundaries between wildlife ecosystems and human communities.  
The story of vector-borne diseases is fundamentally a narrative of ecological relationships, where microscopic parasites and pathogens have evolved remarkable strategies to navigate between arthropod vectors and human hosts. By examining the intricate life cycles, transmission dynamics, clinical manifestations, and global impact of these diseases, this book unveils the multifaceted challenges they present to modern medicine and public health. Readers will journey through diverse landscapes—from tropical regions where Anopheles mosquitoes transmit the ancient scourge of malaria to suburban forests where ticks harbor the bacteria causing Lyme disease—discovering how climate change, urbanization, and human behavior continue to reshape the epidemiological patterns of these persistent threats. Through scientific insight, historical context, and forward-looking analysis, we explore not only the biological complexity of these pathogens but also the innovative strategies being developed to control vectors, prevent transmission, and ultimately reduce the tremendous burden these diseases impose on human communities worldwide.
