Course Details – Electrical Power System Analysis
The Electrical Power System Analysis Course is a comprehensive industry-oriented training program designed to equip students, engineers, and power system professionals with the knowledge and practical skills required to analyze, model, design, and evaluate electrical power systems using modern power system analysis methodologies and software tools. The course covers the complete power system hierarchy, including generation, transmission, distribution, substations, protection systems, and power system operation studies.
Participants begin by learning the fundamentals of electrical power systems, including conventional and renewable energy sources, power generation methods, and the structure of modern electrical grids. The course introduces key power system components such as generators, transformers, transmission lines, busbars, isolators, lightning arresters, reactors, capacitors, wave traps, and grounding systems. Learners gain a solid understanding of how these components interact to ensure reliable and efficient power delivery.
The program further explores power substations, busbar arrangements, transmission and distribution networks, and single-line diagram (SLD) development. Students learn to create professional SLDs for various voltage levels, including 11kV, 33kV, 66kV, and EHV substations. Through practical exercises, participants gain experience in designing, modifying, and documenting electrical power networks using industry-standard engineering practices.
A major focus of the course is the use of Electrical Power System Analysis Software for modeling and simulation. Participants learn how to create projects, insert system components, develop power system networks, and perform engineering studies using software-based analysis tools. The course provides hands-on training in load flow analysis, short-circuit analysis, motor acceleration studies, transformer sizing, cable sizing, relay coordination, harmonic analysis, and arc flash assessment.
The course also covers power system protection principles, protective devices, relay technologies, circuit breakers, current transformers (CTs), potential transformers (PTs), and protection coordination strategies. By the end of the program, participants will be capable of performing complete power system studies and evaluating system performance under normal and fault conditions.
Through extensive practical exercises and project-based learning, learners develop the competency to design, simulate, analyze, and optimize electrical power systems used in utilities, industrial facilities, renewable energy plants, and commercial infrastructure projects.
