High Voltage Three Phase Power Systems Fault Study Course

This course is specifically designed to familiarize students with the fundamental principles of fault study for high voltage three phase power systems. The main objective of this course is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of both the "Per Phase" and "Per Unit" methodologies, which are essential for effectively analyzing system faults. By delving into the analysis of system faults using symmetrical components, this course showcases their practical application in real-world scenarios. Furthermore, it covers system modeling techniques that facilitate the seamless transition between asymmetrical and symmetrical systems, thereby enhancing the overall analysis process. Through the completion of this course, students will not only gain a solid foundation in fault study principles for high voltage three phase power systems but also develop the necessary skills to apply these principles in practical situations. This course serves as a crucial stepping stone for students pursuing a career in electrical engineering or related fields.

The course begins by introducing students to the fundamental principles of fault study, focusing specifically on high voltage three phase power systems. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the "Per Phase" and "Per Unit" methodologies, which are widely used in the analysis of system faults. These methodologies serve as the backbone of fault study, allowing engineers to effectively identify and rectify faults in power systems.

One of the key highlights of this course is its emphasis on the practical application of symmetrical components in fault analysis. Symmetrical components are a powerful tool that allows engineers to simplify complex three phase power systems into simpler single phase systems, making fault analysis more manageable. By exploring real-world scenarios and case studies, students will gain hands-on experience in applying symmetrical components to analyze and solve system faults.

In addition to symmetrical components, this course also covers system modeling techniques. These techniques enable engineers to seamlessly transition between asymmetrical and symmetrical systems, ensuring a smooth and accurate fault analysis process. By understanding the intricacies of system modeling, students will be equipped with the necessary skills to tackle complex fault scenarios and make informed decisions.

Upon completion of this course, students will not only have a solid foundation in fault study principles for high voltage three phase systems but also the practical skills to apply these principles in real-world situations. This knowledge and expertise will be invaluable for those pursuing a career in electrical engineering or related fields, as fault analysis is a critical aspect of power system design and maintenance.

1. A great dive into the details of short circuit analysis. I am requesting the lecturer kindly to share more knowledge about different topics like electrical machines design e.g generators and motors and dive in details as he is doing now. He will enrich the arena of power systems with his A class knowledge. The lecturer is clear and back his tutorial with many examples. He is one of the best instructors I ever listen to ~ H Al Radhwan
2. Highly recommended course for anyone trying to gain an understanding of fault current analysis ~ P Shukla

1. At the end of this Course the student will understand the basic concepts of fault studies on a high voltage three phase system.
2. The student will understand the methodologies of system faults and be able to analyse faults using symmetrical components.
3. System modeling is then used to aid in the process, with the ability to move between asymmetrical and symmetrical systems.

The student should have an understanding of the laws and theorems related to three phase electrical power systems, Per Unit Values and Symmetrical Components.
