The course will go into detail for the following key topics :-

  • Show how a substation DC systems operated and how the battery is sized

  • Look at the key elements of a circuit breaker protection scheme

  • Introduce the principles behind circuit breaker failure protection and show what action needs to be taken.

  • See how circuit breakers can be re-closed after a fault and outline the systems involved

  • Introduce the principles behind synchronising, show what parameters need to be checked and how the systems operate.

  • Go into detail on the main features of transformers, including vector groups, tapchangers, cooling systems, controls / alarms & protection systems

  • Introduce the basic principles and systems associated with SCADA systems

By the end of the course the student will be able to identify all of  the key components of a protection & control system shown above and understand  how all of these components fit together to create a fully integrated  system.

In my current job, we had a problem in a transformer. After taking this course, I was able to identify that the problem was with the Buchholz relay. It was super cool to know that this course helped me in a real life maintenance case.

The best course I have ever attended in the recent times. The highlight of the course is the way the Information is presented to the learners. The most difficult concepts are explained in a very simple and easy to understand way.

By Geoff Hancox on 9/4/2020

Thanks Steve, I really enjoy your simplified presentation of a reasonably complex subject. It would be really useful if you included some references/links for further reading in the notes, although I may simply be looking in the wrong place!

The topics covered in this session are very important but a very brief description is taken, I think its not sufficient more data should be provided.

By Farooq Mohamed Kutty on 6/2/2020

Simplified explanations make the course easy to understand. However, Would appreciate worked out examples providing settings for provided protection relays.
