Training Course Overview
This Power System Protection and Reliability training course offers a thorough understanding of the core principles behind Digital Power System Relaying and Protection Applications. Participants will gain practical skills in testing, operating, and adjusting protective relays. The course also covers key concepts related to the reliability and availability of power system networks, emphasizing proactive strategies to ensure safe and efficient operation.
This training course will feature:
- Define all protection devices required for power system
- Define all standards regarding protection devices and its setting
- Applying function test for protection devices and PD analysis
- Faults types and fault study
- Protection relay according to ANSI code
MODULES
This training course is split into two modules:
MODULE I - Power Quality and Reliability
MODULE II - Power System Protection
Each module is structured and can be taken as a stand-alone training course; however, delegates will maximise their benefits by taking Module 1 and 2 back-to-back as a 2-week training course.
Training Course Objectives
By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:
- Understand power protection devices
- Understand faults system and types
- Power system reliability and PD analysis
- Load types and network availability
- Learn Fundamental Principles of Power System Protection
Designed for
This training course will benefit all electrical, technical & instrumentation engineers. It will help them understand more the principles of power system protection and reliability.
This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:
- Electrical power system engineers
- Electrical technician
- All engineers and tech work in substations, power system and electrical companies (generation, transmission, dist.)
- For managers to understand the effect of power factor correction with cost
- Anyone who requires an understanding of the principles of protective relaying such as recent graduates or those who are new to the industry. Also beneficial as an update on the latest relaying technology
Learning Methods
This training course will utilize a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes lecture with active delegate participation including discussions and workshops. Real life problems and case studies will be worked out and discussed. Through an active participation in the group work and class discussions, the delegates will be a lot of opportunity to increase their experience and knowledge of techniques available for equipment troubleshooting.
