Course Overview

Modern electrical power systems increases the efficiency of electrical power generations, transmission and distribution it also lower carbon footprint for a greener world. It includes the ‘green generation’ of electricity by means of PV Solar Systems, Wind Power Technology, Geothermal Technology and Hydro Power.

Course Objective

  • Power flow optimisation for ‘real power’ and use of a of FACTS devices to improve system operation, including DSM approach
  • New CT and VT optical transducers and protection system using micro processor relays
  • Non linear loads and injected Harmonics, at the PCC (point of common coupling)
  • Diagnostic monitoring of plant and in particular GIS substations

Who Should Attend?

  • Engineers
  • Technicians
  • Professionals involved with the planning, operation and maintenance of small to large scale power networks, from around 11kV upwards
  • Professionals from the Distribution Companies
  • Power Utilities, Engineering Professionals in the Electricity Supply Industry and Petrochemical Companies who have to deal with aspects of generation, transmission and distribution
