Course Overview

Rapid progress in power plants and utilities leads to a parallel needs in distributed
control actions in different sites and environments.
Control systems have created the world’s most advanced distribution automation suite,
including designing, planning, management, and automatic feeder restoration.
This course ranges from revision of power utilities needs for local and remote
measurements and control for different sites, to the advanced robot manipulation and
rapid action execution.

Course Objective

  • Understand the basic concepts of the design of power systems measurement
  • and control.
