Power System Protection & Analysis

Course Introduction

Due to the complexity of electric power systems nowadays Faults occur frequently in all parts of the system. As producers and users of Electrical Energy, you must increase your awareness of present and future power system protection. System integrity depends on a well-conceived and properly implemented protection philosophy. It is important to learn how to design a system where equipment or line removal and system restoration occur quickly and reliably. To do this, it is essential to understand how present mechanical and microprocessor-based relaying systems function, how they communicate, how their performance can be analyzed and what are the future challenges.

Protection system’s main function is to clear faults from the power system in high speed to: enhance people’s safety and minimize equipment damage and maintain power system stability. Protection of power systems requires an understanding of system faults and their detection, and the safe isolation of the faulted device from the system.

This course covers the analysis of power system faults for small and large scale systems. This will be followed by the basic protection functions and their applications to the protection of all elements of power systems. The course emphasizes advanced protection schemes required for practical systems experienced in industrial plants, distribution, transmission and generation systems.

Upon successful completion of the course, attendees will be able to:

• Have a background on how to design protection systems for power system elements
• Optimize protection zones and complete understanding of system performance under emergency (faults) conditions.

In summary, at the end of the course, the attendee will have a solid background in protection concepts to apply them to power system elements. They will also be exposed to the state of the art in microprocessor-based protection.
