Power System Protection and Grounding

The course deals with the important aspects of power system protection with respect to fault detection and isolation, and it is organized as follows:

- System grounding - types, characteristics, and the effects on fault current behavior

- Instrument transformers

- Fundamentals of Power System Protection

- Overcurrent protection

- Transformer protection

- Distance protection

- Fault locators based on point-of-wave and synchrophasor measurements

- Testing of power system protection by RTDS and Omicron
