Course Description

This course aims to provide participants with a fundamental understanding of power system protection and design. It involves an introduction to power-system fault calculations, a review of protection principles and relaying with reference to relevant international standards, and a study of fundamental practices in generator protection, transformer protection, line protection, motor protection, and pilot relaying.

At the end of this course, participants should be able to: 

  • Gain an up to date knowledge on power system protection schemes and related standards
  • Familiarize with techniques to calculate out short-circuit currents
  • Apply protection principles to design protection for electric power equipment and systems
  • Model power system protection and coordination schemes using industry-standard software ETAP
  • Acquire hands-on experience of protection relays and power system hardware simulator

Who Should Attend

  • Engineers
  • Technical managers and technicians working in the electrical power industry
  • Those working at energy utility, manufacturing, and services companies

Outline

  • Introduction to power system faults
  • Short-circuit current calculations in AC systems
  • Review of standards
  • Protection principles
  • Relay technology
  • Overcurrent protection
  • Unit protection
  • Distance protection
  • Transformer/Generator/Motor protection
  • Industrial power system protection
  • Control and limitation of short-circuit currents

Morning sessions are lectures and work examples, with afternoon sessions dedicated to hands-on experiments and power system protection case study using the ETAP software.
