COURSE OVERVIEW
This course deals with development of computer programs for power system studies and
performing power system studies employing simulation packages. Students gain experience in
implementing the mathematical concepts and numerical algorithms that they learn in Power
Systems Analysis course through computer programs. Further, they will be introduced to
anyone of the power system pacakages such as Power World Simulator, ETAP. etc.

COURSE POLICY (preferred mode of correspondence with students, compensation

assessment policy to be specified)

MODE OF CORRESPONDENCE (email/ phone etc)

1. All the students are advised to check their NITT WEBMAIL regularly. All the
correspondence (schedule of classes/ schedule of assessment/ course material/ any other
information regarding this course) will be done through their webmail only.
2. Queries (if required) to the course teacher shall only be emailed to
selvanmp.psect@gmail.com
COMPENSATION ASSESSMENT POLICY

1. Attending all the assessments are MANDATORY for every student.

2. If any student is not able to attend any of the assessments (1 and 2 only) due to genuine
reason, student is permitted to attend the compensation assessment (CPA).
3. At any case, CPA will not be considered as an improvement test.

ATTENDANCE POLICY (A uniform attendance policy as specified below shall be followed)

➢ At least 75% attendance in each course is mandatory.

➢ A maximum of 10% shall be allowed under On Duty (OD) category.

➢ Students with less than 65% of attendance shall be prevented from writing the final
assessment and shall be awarded 'V' grade.

ACADEMIC DISHONESTY & PLAGIARISM

➢ Possessing a mobile phone, carrying bits of paper, talking to other students, copying
from others during an assessment will be treated as punishable dishonesty.

➢ Zero mark to be awarded for the offenders. For copying from another student, both
students get the same penalty of zero mark.

➢ The departmental disciplinary committee including the course faculty member, PAC
chairperson and the HoD, as members shall verify the facts of the malpractice and
award the punishment if the student is found guilty. The report shall be submitted to the
Academic office.

The above policy against academic dishonesty shall be applicable for all the
programmes.
