Integrated Engineering of Medium Voltage Substation

Program Description

This course has a unique blend of fundamental concepts and engineering methodology for substations. The course is structured pragmatically to help the learner understand the industry practices in carrying out the engineering for substations and selection of various substation equipment in accordance with Indian & International Standards. In addition, it covers the electrical safety rules, safe operating procedures and an overview of maintenance practices to give a holistic understanding of the subject. This course also includes a module on digital substations, which discusses the Substation Automation Architecture and introduces communication using IEC 61850"

Objective:

  • Explain the concepts behind substation engineering and design.
  • Demonstrate how to prepare and read SLD for substation.
  • Demonstrate how to size and select LV and HV equipment’s for
    power distribution, protection and switchgear.
  • Formulate and analyze erection key diagram, layout preparation and necessary sectional clearance in substation installation.
  • Assess multi-disciplinary approach in substation
    engineering.
