Why Attend This Training Course?

Power System Analyses are an essential part of electrical power system design. Load flow analysis, short circuit analysis, and protection coordination are necessary to verify that the electrical system including the system components, are correctly specified to perform as intended, withstand expected stress, and be protected against failures. Protection of Electrical Networks first discusses network structures and grounding systems together with problems that can occur in networks. It goes on to cover current and voltage transformers, protection functions, circuit breakers and fuses. Electrical Networks Protection & Coordination training course contains theoretical and practical information on the transmission and distribution protection schemes utilizing advanced and highly reliable technology. Issues surrounding power quality and their effect on power systems will also be addressed in the course.
