Training course Switching in power distribution and transmission systems

Three-day training course covering the application of power circuit breakers for medium and high voltage to meet (future) electrical requirements for power systems

Description:

Understanding how breakers operate as they perform their switching duties in medium and high-voltage networks. Application of power circuit breakers to meet power system requirements, not only in fault situations but also during normal operation. How the breaker deals with network transients and how it generates transients itself.

Registration fee: (per person; 3 lunches, 2 dinners and course material included, VAT excluded):

This three-day training course deals with switching and switching devices in medium and high-voltage power systems mainly from the electrical perspective. The participants will receive the full-color KEMA book "High Voltage Circuit Breakers" (ed. 2011) and a CD or USB-stick including copies of all the training material (presentation slides) and reference documents. A visit to the KEMA High-Power Laboratory is also included.
