Advanced Power Systems

Power System Analysis is an essential part of electrical power system design. Load flow analysis, short circuit analysis, and protection coordination are necessary to verify that the electrical system including the system components is correctly specified to perform as intended, withstand expected stress, and be protected against failures.

In order to obtain a highly reliable and efficient power system, it is necessary to build up/develop/discuss suitable power system modeling, load profiles, various busbar configurations with pros and cons, technical specifications for major equipment, alternative protection schemes, and control strategies, and efficient earthing systems. All these topics are well discussed and practiced throughout this course.

Salvo Global’s engineering training course on “Advanced Power Systems” addresses all aspects of industrial and utility power systems, including system planning, equipment selection, specification and application, system grounding, protection, and conformity with electrical code requirements etc.

Top Learning Objectives

  • Improve your knowledge about the design, operation, and construction of advanced power systems
  • Minimize adverse effects of power outages and mal-operation
  • Maximise power system efficiency, reliability, dependability, and quality
  • Gain valuable insights through in-depth power system analysis, constraints, and solutions
  • Understand how to set up the protection settings for different power system configurations
  • Discuss the challenges related to the design, protection, control, and construction of power systems
  • Learn how to interpret the results of power system modelling
  • Practice development of technical specifications for transformers and switchgears
  • Create single-line diagrams and schematics for different power systems

Who Should Attend?

Professionals involved in designing, selecting, sizing, specifying, installing, testing, operating and maintaining power systems will practice these techniques on modern power systems. The course is also useful for company directors, managers, and other decision makers to get an idea about how different scenarios and alternatives in terms of the selection of busbar configurations and the related protection and control schemes can significantly affect the company commercial model for different projects.
