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 Modern Power System Proactive Relaying. It covers the types of power systems and power system components; the fundamentals of power system protection, relaying components and operation and proactive protection strategy; the power system faults and fault analysis and safety considerations in protection systems; the distance protection schemes, differential protection for power equipment and overcurrent protection and time coordination; the proactive relay settings optimization, communication in protection systems and digital relays and smart protection systems; and the phasor measurement units (PMU) in protection, fault detection using synchrophasors and self-healing grids and proactive relaying. 

 

Further, the course will also discuss the artificial intelligence and machine learning in protection, cybersecurity in modern protection systems and transformer protection and relaying; the generator protection and control, busbar protection systems, feeder protection and coordination and motor protection systems; the arc flash risks in protection systems, protective measures against arc flash and standards and regulations for arc flash protection; the testing and commissioning of protection systems; and the proper maintenance of protection relays and equipment. 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the proactive monitoring and real-time data analysis, data analysis for early detection of faults and cloud-based platforms for protection system monitoring; the emerging trends in power system protection, smart grids and the future of protection relays; the role of automation and robotics in power system protection and future advancements in protection technology; and the key performance indicators for protection systems, methods for evaluating protection system reliability and strategies for improving protection system performance.
