  • Abstract
    The electrical design features of Bad Creek are, in many ways, no different from those of any other power plant; however, the site topography and arrangement of electrical equipment at the project have made Bad Creek a challenge to design and construct. The description of the project details some aspects of the main power system, auxiliary power systems, grounding, control systems, and testing and is intended to highlight those features that are unique
