Training Course Overview

The power transmission and distribution infrastructure links cities, countries, power plants, urban areas, and rural regions to electrical power. Smart grid systems incorporate demand response, grid interconnections, energy management solutions, and energy storage. This Electric Power Transmission & Distribution Engineering training course will cover both traditional overhead and underground transmission and distribution networks.

Additionally, the course will explore microgrids, which are independent energy systems made up of distributed energy sources, including demand management, storage, generation, and load capabilities. These microgrids can operate in parallel with or independently from the main power grid.

The training course will also address key equipment such as transformers, switchgears, and circuit breakers, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of how to achieve efficient and safe electric power transmission and distribution systems.

This training course will feature:

  • The conventional overhead and underground transmission and distribution systems
  • The smart grid network
  • The micro grid system
  • Power transformers
  • Circuit breakers
  • Protection relays and switchgears

Training Course Objectives

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Explain the difference between a transmission network and a distribution network
  • Understand the characteristics of a smart grid
  • Determine the components and merits of a micro grid network
  • Explain the characteristics of the power transformers
  • Understand the various arc quenching methods for circuit breakers
  • Design a simple transmission and distribution network

Designed for

The training course will benefit the engineers, technicians and supervisors on the operations, functions of major renewable energy integration components. This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

  • Electrical engineers
  • Electrical supervisors
  • Power engineers
  • Managers in-charge of electrical installations
  • Project engineers

Learning Methods

This training course will utilise a variety of proven adult training techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes presentation and discussion of latest videos and technologies on smart grids and renewable energy. Questions are encouraged throughout, particularly at the daily wrap up sessions. This provides opportunities for participants to discuss with the Presenter specific issues and, if possible, find appropriate solutions. Specific goals of each participant will be discussed to ensure that their needs are fulfilled whenever practicable.
