    Who should attend?
    This course is developed for technical personnel involved in the operations and maintenance of power and distribution transformers.

     

    Course Synopsis:
    When the system is large, the chance of a fault occurring and the disturbance that a fault would bring are both so great that without equipment to remove faults the system will become, in practical terms, inoperable.

    Improving plant design, increasing the spare capacity margin and arranging alternative circuits to supply loads can better security of supply. Sub-division of the system into zones, controlled by switchgear, provides flexibility during normal operation and ensures a minimum of downtime in case of a breakdown.

    The intention of this course is to provide fundamentals of protection practice, its specific application in transformer protection and main considerations for protection evaluation and testing.
