Power System Harmonics, Distribution & Protection

Power systems at the distribution level should be planned and designed with consideration for ease of operation. Such considerations include but are not limited to utilization of standard components, facilitating availability of spare parts, optimization of post-contingency switching operations, reduction of operational risks and use of special protection systems (SPSs) and power supply reliability. Power system planning- must consider system configuration and the effect of harmonics in current and voltage during the distribution system study. The quality of electrical power must guarantee the continuity of supply (Harmonics problems), fixed frequency, non-viola¬tion of voltage limits, cleanness of supply voltage signal ect.

The power System Harmonics, Distribution & Protection course will discuss how future electrical loads can be integrated into the existing power utility networks to meet the high supply quality and match with standard rating values (IEC standard). This course will cover all aspects of power distribution, including system operation, equipment selection and application, system harmonics values, protection and conformity with electrical code requirements. Participants gain knowledge of different protection units & schemes for electrical equipment, harmonics on power system equipment, power distribution fundamentals & different types.
