Power System Protection

Course details

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

This AZTech 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?

By the end of this AZTech training course, participants will be able to:

• 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
