This professional development course is designed for engineers and technicians who need practical skills and knowledge in understanding power system protection, including how to calculate fault currents, and select relays and associated instrument transformers appropriate to each typical system or equipment.
This course is designed for engineers and technicians who need practical skills and knowledge in understanding power system protection.
The course is composed of 12 modules, covering the fundamentals of electrical power protection and applications, how to recognize the different fault types, protection system components, performing simple fault and design calculations, performing simple relay settings, and choosing appropriate protective devices for various equipment.
The Engineering Institute of Technology (EIT) is one of the only institutes in the world specializing in engineering. EIT offers industry-oriented programs, world-class Australian accredited education, and industry experienced lecturers. EIT's unique delivery model allows students to learn flexibly online while still benefiting from practical, applied knowledge.
After completing this course, you will have the skills and knowledge necessary to calculate fault currents, and select relays and associated instrument transformers appropriate to each typical system or equipment. You will also learn how to adjust the setting of the relays so that the relays closest to the fault will operate and clear the fault faster than the backup devices.
