Introduction
Training course introducion / brief
This Electrical Faults training course teaches practical electrical faults detection and how the team can depend on the available equipment / tools and the modern updated technology for make a good detection and analysis for the faults and how can in future minimize or / and decrease the values of repeated cited electrical faults
Also the attendees will have a good understanding of faults types with the calculation of fault currents in electrical power systems. Moreover the attendees will subject to types of Comprehend Fault Awareness and Analysis.
Effective power system faults detection and troubleshooting is consider one of the goals where the speed / rapidly detection for the faults and solve it is consider one the key features for the power system quality and reliability, this fault detection depending in the right methodology of thinking and catching the points of faults using the right tools as (instrument transformers, thermograph survey, vibration, metering devices, protection system,….)
This training course includes the preparation of the system for analysis, by manual calculation and by the use of computer analysis software program ETAP. Participants will be introduced to the various fault analysis software programs.
Depending on the Promote Proactive Measures and Compliance is consider of the course target to reduce the faults repeated and increase electrical power system reliability.
In summary, at the end of the course, the attendees will have a solid background in the Electrical Faults reasons & Causes, How can conduct a good analysis for the root cause, and how can make a detection & Remedies .
Course Objectives
