WHY CHOOSE THIS TRAINING COURSE? WHAT ARE THE GOALS?

This highly-interactive training course will introduce you to the By the end of this training course,
equipment that makes up an electric substation. It will explain participants will be able to:
how each type of equipment operates and guide you through the
control and wiring diagrams that control equipment operation. • Design, install, commission, test, operate, control and
maintain HV/MV substations in a professional manner
Recent technological developments have had tremendous impact • Identify the various types of substations covering its parts,
on all aspects of substation design, operation, maintenance, equipment and major components
safety, and grounding, testing and troubleshooting. A substation • Recognize over current protection for phase and earth faults
is a high – voltage electric system facility. It is used to switch as well as the recommended grading intervals
generators, equipment, and circuits or lines in and out of a system. • Employ proper commissioning covering pre and cold
It is also used to change AC voltages from one level to another, commissioning, start-up, hot commissioning, start of
and/or change alternating current to direct current or direct current production, performance test and acceptance of plant
to alternating current. • Perform testing procedures and basic calculations
• Illustrate medium voltage switchgear and oil circuit breakers
Knowledge of equipment condition allows you to target your
maintenance efforts to reduce equipment failures and improve
substation reliability. Applying predictive maintenance methods
can reduce your costs and improve the performance of your WHO IS THIS TRAINING COURSE FOR?
