CHP134 – Protection for Distribution
Networks and Industry – Fundamentals &
Applications
Course goal
The participants acquire in-depth application knowledge for busbars, circuit breakers and transformers
that enable them to design protection application solutions in practice.
Main learning objectives
The participants will be able to:
— Go into typical characteristics of distribution
networks as far as operation modes, ground-
ing possibilities and fault types
— Learn the development steps and implemen-
tation of a protection concept
— Design protection schemes for different
power devices (lines, transformers and mo-
tors etc.) and select important protection
functions
— Coordinate different protection and estab-
lish selective and graded schemes
— Calculate the settings of different protection
functions
— Specify and verify instrument transformers
— Introduce different application cases
Participant profile
Consultants and employees from the electricity
supply industry. Technical personnel from ABB.
Prerequisites
Engineering degree, technical college qualifica-
tions or equivalent. Basic knowledge of protec-
tion and substation automation as well as PC
