In particular, the encouragement and support for research at the University of Colorado by Dipl.-Ing. Dietrich J. Roesler, formerly with the US Department of Energy, Washington DC, who was one of the first professionals coining the concept of power quality more than 32 years ago, is greatly appreciated. Lastly, the work initiated by the late Professor Edward A. Erdelyi of the University of Colorado, doctoral advisor to Ewald F. Fuchs, is reflected in part of this book. ...
