Power transmission and distribution infrastructure connects, cities countries, power plants, urban area and rural areas to electrical power. Smart grid infrastructure requires demand response, grid interconnects, energy management systems and energy storage. This Electric Power Transmission & Distribution Engineering training course will include the conventional overhead and underground transmission and distribution systems.
The Electric Power Transmission & Distribution Engineering training course will also look into the micro grid which is a discrete energy system consisting of distributed energy sources including demand management, storage, and generation and loads capable of operating in parallel with, or independently from, the main power grid.
The relevant equipment like transformers, switch gears, circuit breakers will be discusses so as to provide an efficient and safe electric power transmission and distribution systems.
