Topics
Power System Fundamentals:
- Receive an introduction to power markets and fundamental concepts of the electric power system, including: challenges related to reliability, performance and potential bottlenecks or limits on the system that can impact trading, and key power market fundamentals.
Power System Analysis & Symmetrical Components:
- Learn about power system analysis fundamentals, including the evolution of alternating current power concepts and an analysis of unbalanced faults on large electric power systems.
Transmission Planning & Analysis:
- Get a detailed look at transmission, including steady-state power flow analysis and dynamic simulations that show how to interpret results using world-class software analysis tools from GE. Additionally, the course discusses the impact of deregulation in the power industry.
Surge Analysis & Equipment Application:
- Learn about switching and lightning surges, overvoltage control and protection, and coordination of overvoltages with equipment insulation to ensure safe and reliable design. The course also covers how to quantify transient voltage stresses from the electrical environment
Reactive Power Compensation & Voltage Control:
- This course describes how to improve power factor and voltage regulation. Examine case studies on the effect of reactive power on voltage regulation and power transfer at the transmission level.
Protective Relaying Fundamentals:
- Gain an analytical understanding of the application of components of power system protective relaying. The course covers engineering best practices required to protect transmission, distribution and rotating machinery systems.
