Power System Analysis Training

Course Duration: 3 Days

Course Objectives:

• Power System Analysis means verifying the adequacy of the power distribution system and it's components.
• Recognize coordination related disturbances and outages.
• Collect the required data to perform a detailed coordination study.
• Derive complete protective device settings for some of the simpler electrical power systems that are consistent with NEC requirements.

Who Should Attend:
This course is intended for anyone who must perform calculations, provide settings or approve the work performed by others. The trainee should be a graduate engineer or have the equivalent practical work experience in electrical power systems.
