Power system protection systems play a crucial role in establishing reliable electrical power systems. Poorly designed protection systems may result in major power failures. Due to the increasing importance of electricity, such power failures can have a serious impact on society and the economy.

Knowledge of power system protection systems is key when it comes to optimising the reliability level of electrical infrastructures. With the advances in protection and communication technology in recent decades plus the strong increase of renewable energy sources, the design and operation of power system protection systems has become ever more challenging.

This course presents the fundamentals of power system protection and its application. A very “hands-on” approach is used to teach the concepts. Understanding is then reinforced with real world examples. Interaction is encouraged between participants and the presenters, to underpin the learning objectives.

Objective

Delegates will gain an overall appreciation of the applicable standards and working practices for:

  • Equipment Design and selection of Electrical Equipment
  • Installation
  • Testing and Commissioning
  • Maintenance
Audience

This course is designed for technical professionals working in transmission or distribution network operator companies, consultancy organisations, in large industries or government organisations involved in design, engineering, commissioning or maintenance of protection systems. It is recommended that participants have at least a Bachelor of Engineering degree.

Methodology

The latest educational methods and strategies are employed. The course is designed to maximize delegate participation. From the outset the goals of each participant are discussed to ensure needs are fulfilled as far as possible. Questions and answers are encourages throughout and at the daily wrap-up sessions. This gives participants the opportunity to discuss with other delegates and the presenter their specific problems and appropriate solutions. All delegates take away a manual of all the material presented. Only minimum note taking is encouraged to ensure maximum delegate attention during the seminars.
