COURSE OVERVIEW

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Electrical Power Systems Components. It covers the electrical power systems, basic electrical quantities and concepts and power generation systems; the power system voltage levels and classifications; the one-line diagrams and system layout; and the generators and alternators, power transformers, high voltage switchgear, transmission lines, towers and substations. 

 

Further, the course will also discuss the distribution transformers and RMUs, distribution panels and switchboards and circuit breakers and protective devices; the cables and conductors, energy meters and load management devices and power system protection; and the relays and protection schemes covering overcurrent, earth fault, differential, distance relays, numerical versus electromechanical relays, time-current characteristics and protection grading and setting.

During this interactive course, participants will learn the control systems and automation; the SCADA systems for electrical power, remote terminal units (RTUs) and PLCS, human-machine interface (HMI) and data acquisition and logging; the power quality monitoring, power factor correction, energy auditing tools and grounding and earthing systems; the load flow and system stability as well as power factor and reactive power compensation; and the system integration and interconnection, testing and commissioning procedures and operation and maintenance best practices.
