Electrical Faults Diagnosis & Troubleshooting

SUITABLE FOR:

Engineers and Technicians responsible for the specification, commissioning and operation of electrical equipment in a power system, particularly those involved with specifying and commissioning protection gear. Also, suitable for those operating in power networks who require update or refresh their knowledge and skills

OBJECTIVES:

By the end of the course, delegates will:

• learn how to collect in a structured way data and information needed for a power system prior to fault analysis
• be exposed to the analytical techniques to study a power system under various types of faults
• understand faults, their effect and different types of calculations involved with short, medium and long time of these phenomena affecting the power system
• be able to assess the design and functionality of protective equipment
• be familiar with the latest software based approaches to deal with complicated commercial and industrial power systems and their analysis under fault conditions

SUMMARY:

• Introduction to fault analysis
• Three-phase short-circuit currents
• Unsymmetrical fault conditions
• Representation of unsymmetrical faults in power systems
• Computer based calculation of faults
• Case Studies
