Implementing Data Science Driven Recommender Systems For Business Applications With R

A recommended practice for the design and operation of electric systems in health care facilities is provided. The term health care facility as used here encompasses buildings or parts of buildings that contain hospitals, nursing homes, residential custodial care facilities, clinics, ambulatory health care centers, and medical and dental offices. Buildings or parts of buildings within an industrial or commercial complex, used as medical facilities, logically fall within the scope of this recommended practice.

This Recommended Practice, commonly known as the “Brown Book,” is intended as a practical, general treatise on power system analysis theory and as an engineer’s reference source on the techniques that are most commonly applied to the computer-aided analysis of electric power systems in industrial plants and commercial buildings. The Brown Book is a useful supplement to several other power system analysis texts that appear in the references and bibliography subclauses of the various chapters of this book. The Brown Book is both complementary and supplementary to the rest of the Color Book series.

Grounding of an electrical system is a decision that must be faced sometime by most engineers charged with planning or modifying electrical distribution. Grounding in some form is generally recommended, although there are certain exceptions. Several methods and criteria exist for system grounding; each has its own purpose.

Grounding of an electrical system is a decision that must be faced sometime by most engineers charged with planning or modifying electrical distribution. Grounding in some form is generally recommended, although there are certain exceptions. Several methods and criteria exist for system grounding; each has its own purpose. It is the intention of this section to assist the engineer in making decisions on the subject by presenting basic reasons for grounding or not grounding and by reviewing general practices and methods of system grounding. The practices set forth herein are primarily applicable to industrial power systems that distribute and utilize power at medium or low voltage, usually within a smaller geographical area than is covered by a utility.
