Introduction
Training course introducion / brief
A wide-area measurement system (WAMS)
consists of advanced measurement technology, the latest communication network
infrastructure, and integrated operational framework.
WAMS
The main enabler of WAMS is phasor measurement unit (PMU) technology. With the innovation of PMU, the problem of measuring the phasor quantities simultaneously from a wide area of distributed substations, also called ‘synchrophasor’, has been solved.
At present, the PMU technology is one of the essential enablers for WAMS. It utilizes the availability of high-precision synchronized clock sources – extracted from global positioning system (GPS) receivers and samples the instantaneous analogue – quantities of voltage and current magnitudes and phase angles.
During the 5 days Training- Consultancy, will introduce the technological development of synchronized phasor measurements and their use in modern WAMS. Will be discussed the concept of phasors, synchrophasors, and their architecture.
Same will be touched the modern applications of these systems in monitoring, protection and control. During this period will also describe industry standards, and will conclude with an account of WAMS applications in many countries around the world.
Course Objectives
At the end of the training course, participants will be able to

COURSE METHODOLOGY
Our Training programs are implemented by combining the participants' academic knowledge and practical practice (30% theoretical / 70% practical activities).
At The end of the training program, Participants are involved in practical workshop to show their skills in applying what they were trained for. A detailed report is submitted to each participant and the training department in the organization on the results of the participant's performance and the return on training. Our programs focus on exercises, case studies, and individual and group presentations.
Since 2001, we have been pioneering the training field in the middle east, we managed to unlock potential and help individuals, teams and organisations to be the best that they can be with our full and integrated solutions.
