Electrical Steels - Chapter 12

A developed electrical system enables power to be generated at key locations and distributed widely. To realize such a system requires means of generation, distribution and utilization. Electrical steels play a key role in an electrical system; alongside copper conductors, they make the whole system feasible. This chapter reviews the production and recent developments, with special attention to coating technologies, of the two main groups of electrical steels, i.e. the grain-oriented electrical steels and the non grain-oriented grain electrical steels.
