Power System Protective Relays Operation And Testing
Course Description
Electricity is high-grade energy. Working in the electrical substations needs to be able to deal with the power & distribution transformers. All staff engineers or technicians need to understand the power transformers rules and their applications also learn the requirements of power & distribution transformer maintenance and testing and be able to understand the protection system of the transformers This course is designed to raise the level of electrical technicians deal with the transformers to provide specific guidance to those who must implement and follow the associated procedures.

Electrical power engineers and advanced operating staff of substations, factories, electrical distribution networks and transmission.

This interactive Training will be highly interactive, with opportunities to advance your opinions and ideas and will include;

  • Lectures
