Protection settings in low and medium voltage grids

Online trainings
Duration: Ca. 1-2 weeks
Study time: 11 hours

Content

  • Electrical behaviour of protection devices and photovoltaic generation systems
  • Grid calculation methods
  • Protection system planning principles
  • Protection testing
  • Compliance monitoring

Learning objectives

After completing this course, participants will be able to:

  • explain the general purpose of protection systems in distribution grids,
  • name the basic principles of protection systems,
  • identify the different impacts of renewables integration that impact grid protection scheme design,
  • identify the most important differences in grid protection systems between low and medium voltage grids,
  • explain the different kinds of protection systems that are in use today,
  • describe the different calculation methods used in protection system planning and
  • derive key success factors for effective protection planning principles when taking into account distributed PV power generation.

Target group

This course suits those who

  • Have an advanced knowledge of electrical engineering
  • Are involved in the distribution grid operation and
  • Want to understand how protection systems have to change if large amount of distributed generation as e.g. photovoltaic is connected to the grid
