Description
دورة نظام الطاقة الكهربائية Electrical power system
Course Objective
This course provide a deep understanding for advanced level of Protection of power system and electrical systems Faults
The continuity of electrical power supply is very important especially for the industrial sector where a curtailment of supply is extremely costly as oil and gas field. Hence it is important to take the necessary action to prevent faults, to minimize potential damage and power disruption to life, equipment and property. Electrical systems are subjected to various external and internal factors for e.g. lightning phenomena, weather conditions, insulation failure, pollution, temperature rise, unforeseen rises in power usages, etc.
