Protection and Control of High Voltage Power Circuits
Explore contemporary protective devices and protocols utilized in the utilities and industrial sectors.
DESCRIPTION:
In this course, we will explore the principles of protecting and controlling high voltage stations. We will study HV Bus Differential Protection, including the challenges posed by CT saturation and mis-match, and its solution, known as "Restraint Differential Protection."
We will begin by examining system faults and how they impact switchyard configuration and elements. We will then delve into simple "Differential Protection" and the issues that can arise due to CT saturation and mis-match.
Next, we will explore the different types of high voltage circuit breakers, such as Oil, Vacuum, Air Blast, and SF6. We will cover their controls, including closing, tripping, and anti-pumping, and examine the Reclosure Syncrocheck relay CUH 90 - VG. We will also discuss Breakers Failure Protection and briefly touch on Dynamic Monitoring Equipment.
Additionally, we will look at transfer and remote tripping and the importance of providing immunity from ground rise potential and open circuit situations.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:
WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR:
- Electrical engineers and technicians working in the power industry
- Electrical contractors and consultants involved in the construction of high voltage systems
- Power system operators and maintenance personnel
- Utility managers and executives responsible for the safe and reliable operation of high voltage systems

I have learnt alot.Thank you
Ahmed
Yes, easy to follow, thanks
Roberto
It was good. Specially distance protection has been explained very well. Other topics were basic. I was expecting more and some challenging topics. I am little disappointed by spending $38 on easy topics.

It doesn't present subtitles and you cannot change the speed of the vídeo. There's no text at the and of the course and the content is just an introduction.
Noaman
Excellent Course
Extremely great course. I wish that the course focused a little more on the IED/Numerical Relays. Thank you for a wonderful course.
