INTRODUCTION
The Electrical Power System is generally a complex enterprise that may be subdivided into major subsystems: generation, transmission, distribution, and utilisation.
Power Quality is of primary concern for reliable, proper, and economical operation of the whole electrical power system. It is also necessary to periodically monitor the performance of the constituent subsystems to ensure their compatibility with power quality requirements and relevant standards.
-
COURSE OBJECTIVES
By the end of the course, you‘ll be able to:
- Understand the fundamental concepts of power quality (PQ) problems (types, characteristics, and causes) and related standards.
-
Understand different stages and procedures required to conduct and implement on-site PQ scurvies.
-
Gain knowledge of different PQ monitoring equipment and techniques and capability of selecting appropriate equipment for monitoring a given phenomenon.
-
Identify PQ problems mitigation equipment and techniques as well as study of the effect of earthing system quality of PQ-state and study of power quality disturbances related to inadequate earthing systems.
-
Understand of requirements, objectives, planning, and properties of earthing systems and study of related standards.
-
Understand various issues related to earth electrode subsystems.
-
Understand techniques for various earth/earthing systems resistance measurements and analysis of various affecting parameters.
-
Learn design of earthing systems for various applications considering various reasonable configurations.
-
Troubleshoot of various earthing systems caused problems.
