Power Transformer Online Monitoring Using Electromagnetic Waves 1st Edition

Power Transformer Online Monitoring Using Electromagnetic Waves, 1st Edition by Gevork B. Gharehpetian and Hossein Karami delivers a timely, practical guide for engineers and utility managers seeking to modernize transformer condition assessment. Framed around the latest electromagnetic-wave based techniques, this book captures attention with clear explanations of how online monitoring transforms reliability for transmission and distribution networks.

Inside, readers find a balanced mix of theory and application: fundamentals of electromagnetic wave propagation, sensor technologies, signal processing algorithms, and system integration strategies for real-time power transformer monitoring. Detailed examples and case studies demonstrate deployment in substations and transformer yards, highlighting measurable gains in fault detection, insulation health evaluation, and partial discharge localization. The authors translate complex concepts into actionable steps for designing monitoring systems that work in diverse environments — from urban grids to remote installations.

For utilities, consultants, and researchers, the book creates strong motivation: reduced unplanned outages, lower maintenance costs, and improved asset lifetime through predictive maintenance. It’s especially relevant for professionals responsible for grid reliability across regions — including North America, Europe, and Asia — where aging infrastructure and increasing load demands make advanced monitoring indispensable.

Practical, forward-looking, and technically rigorous, this title is an essential resource for anyone implementing or evaluating online transformer monitoring solutions. Equip your team with the knowledge to deploy electromagnetic-wave based systems confidently and cost-effectively — add this authoritative volume by Gharehpetian and Karami to your professional library today.
