The Power System Protection training course offered by Coventry Academy provides a comprehensive understanding of protecting power systems from abnormal conditions such as short-circuit faults. This course covers fundamental principles and practical applications of protective devices used in both industrial and utility settings. Participants will learn about electromechanical and digital relays, fuse selection and coordination, as well as utility-specific devices like reclosers and sectionalizers.
Key topics covered in the Coventry Academy training course include:
By the end of this Coventry Academy training course, participants will be able to:
This training course is designed for utility, plant, or consulting engineers and technicians involved in the protection of transmission, distribution, or generation facilities. If you are beginning a career or assignment in these areas, this training course will be of value to you. Those designing protection schemes, or coordinating and setting overcurrent relays and fuses will especially benefit from this course. Topics will begin at the fundamental level and move to more advanced content as the training course progresses. Prerequisites include a basic understanding of vector algebra and a familiarity with the voltage, current, watt, var, and phase angle measurement terms used in three-phase power systems. Knowledge of symmetrical components and sequence networks is also beneficial.
This Coventry Academy training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:
This Coventry Academy training course will utilize a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension, and retention of the information presented. These methods include workshops where attendees practice solving problems (bring a scientific calculator), case studies where concepts covered are applied to real-world situations, and simulations and animations to visually illustrate what would otherwise be abstract concepts in a novel and intuitive manner.
