  • Abstract
    When designing a power plant dc system, the engineer must be cognizant of the limitations that the selected nominal voltage level places on the system. A discussion (from design, operation, and economic viewpoints) of the advantages and disadvantages of commonly used dc voltage levels is presented. Recommendations on system voltage selection are made.
