Course Summary

This course will provide students with a good knowledge and understanding of: - the operational performance, the transient behaviour and control of synchronous generators;- the power system protection equipment;- the principles of overcurrent protection of power systems and machines;- the operation and protection of distributed generators.A number of relevant technical and engineering aspects of the analysis of steady state and transient performance of synchronous generators and power supply systems will be considered in the context of operation, protection and control of power supply systems with increasing connection of distributed generation, including their application during the system design and operational stages.
