After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

… understand fundamentals of electrical protection and measuring principles,

… know application fields of electrical protection in energy transmission, distribution and generation,

… understand protection concepts and schemes,

… apply methods of earth faut protection,

… know characteristics of instrument transformers,

... analyze faults and disturbances from the protection engineering point of view,

… give an overview about the actual development in the electrical protection field.

Fundamentals of electrical protection, faults and disturbances in electrical systems and equipment, measuring principles in electrical protection (overcurrent, differential protection, distance protection,…), measuring transformers, application fields of electrical protection (generator protection, transformer protection, busbar protection, line protection), earth fault protection, fault records, data protocols, actual developments (traveling waves, IEC61850,…), focus on practical application, discussions
