COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises.  Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and an up-to-date overview of intensive overhead transmission line (OHTL). It covers the power transmission networks, components of transmission lines, reliability levels and selection of economic voltage of transmission of power; the OHTL safety procedures; the OHTL towers; the OHTL conductors; the isolator materials; the surge arrestors and the OHTL earthing. 

Further, the course will also discuss the function of current transformer including its types, classes, connections, multi-ratio, polarity, burden calculations, saturation, etc.; the OHTL voltage transformers; the OHTL outdoor circuit breakers and reclosers; the OHTL measurements and instrumentation; and the distribution switchgear of oil wells. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn to maintain, repair and troubleshoot switchgears and VSD; recognize variable speed drive and electronic components that include diode, thyristor, transistor and IGBT; and identify the design, function and equivalent circuit diagram of motors as well as the design and function of AC converter.
