An engineering or technician who needs practical skills and knowledge in power system protection, including how to calculate fault currents and select relays and instrument transformers that are appropriate for each typical system or equipment can take advantage of this professional development course. 

Topics Covered: 

• Fundamental concepts of electrical power system protection 
• Types of faults and their causes in power systems 
• Protection schemes and their components 

• Protection relays and their applications 
• Power system fault analysis and protection coordination 
• Special protection schemes for transmission lines and transformers 
• Testing and commissioning of protection systems 

Course Benefits: 

• Receive a Certificate of Completion 
• Experience world-class faculty and industry experts. 
• Attend anytime, anywhere, even when working full-time. 
• Learn about the latest updates/announcements during the webinars and interact with industry experts. 
• Take part in a global learning environment with students of different backgrounds and experiences, which is a great opportunity for networking. 

• Learn how to make informed decisions about the protection of electrical power systems and methods for improving site safety. 
• Learn how to make informed decisions about the protection of electrical power systems and methods for improving site safety. 
• Learn how to calculate fault currents, select relays, and understand power system protection. 
• Examine altering relay settings so that the relays closest to the fault will operate and clear the fault more quickly than backup devices. 
• Recognize different types of faults and select appropriate protective devices. 

Throughout this course, we will explain all of these points in detail, and we will provide you with the skills and knowledge to calculate fault currents, as well as select relays and instrument transformers appropriate to each typical system and equipment. Also, you will learn how to set the relays so that the nearest relay will operate and clear the fault faster than the backups.
