Introduction

This Power System Protection training course covers the fundamentals of protecting a power system against hazards posed by abnormal system conditions, such as short-circuit faults. An overview of the protective devices available for application, both industrial and utility, is presented along with typical means of implementing these devices. Both electromechanical and digital relays are discussed. Fuse selection and coordination is explored in depth. Utility-specific protective devices, such as reclosers and sectionalizers, are presented, and utility-specific protection strategies, such as fuse-saving and fuse-blowing are covered. This Power System Protection training course allows the delegates to apply techniques learned in this course to realistic protection scenarios.

This training course will feature:

Philosophy of protective relaying and protection strategies
Electromechanical relay operating principles and microprocessor implementations
Radial system protection – time-coordinated overcurrent protection
Instrument transformers
Differential and distance relays, including pilot protection

What are the goals?

Comprehend protective relaying philosophies and choose appropriate protection strategies
Understand how electromechanical relays work and how they are emulated by microprocessors
Design a properly coordinated overcurrent protection system for a radial distribution system
Properly specify instrument transformers for protection applications
Design protection schemes utilizing differential and distance relays, including pilot protection

Who is this training course for?

Engineers and technicians new to the power industry
Intermediate-level engineers and technicians responsible for power system protection
Professionals involved with developing protection schemes to improve reliability
Facility engineers and consultants who conduct protection studies
Engineers tasked with assessing the effectiveness of protection schemes
