Protection Of Electrical Power Systems
Course Description
Power system protection is an essential component of all forms of electrical power systems. In practice, protective relaying is directly associated with security of supply, the reduction of damage to faulted plant, cost of energy and, most importantly, all aspects of safety. The subject is unique in requiring knowledge of all topics broadly classified under the title of electrical power engineering, including generation, utilization, maintenance and the transmission of electrical power. As a consequence, it enhances an engineer €™s working knowledge and becomes an important asset for power system planning, operation and management.
The Training Course Will Highlight ?

The course focuses attention on the fundaments of the subject and illustrates the protection philosophies in common use by reference to the application of modern multi-functional microprocessor relays to practical situations.

Training Objective

By the end of this course delegates will be able to:

  • The need for protection & Protection fundamentals
  • Relay transducers, both current and future
  • System grounding principles & Overcurrent earth fault protection
  • An overview of power system fault analysis & Coordination principles
  • Transformer protection & Generator protection
  • Bus protection & Motor protection
  • Line and feeder protection & Principles of relay application

Target Audience

The aim of the programme is to update the working knowledge of practicing protection engineers and senior technicians as well as those in closely related branches of electrical power engineering responsible for specification, installation, inspection, and maintenance and commissioning of electrical plant
