The basic principles of transformers, configurations, cooling & protection, are examined along with inrush, saturation and harmonic phenomenon that are found in most High Voltage Stations and industry.
In this course asymmetrical faults are simplified with the use of Symmetrical Components. Simple per component equivalent circuits are developed allowing for single phase analysis and ultimately the phase by phase fault results.
A Per-Unit system is the expression of system quantities as fractions of a defined base unit quantity. Learn exactly what Per Unit Analysis is, the main advantages of using it, how manufacturers of equipment use and rate their products and the technique of converting to and from the Per Unit system.

Rotating Machinery
This course will focus on the fundamentals of rotating electrical equipment. This will include AC and DC motors and generators. Starting with the basic theories required and finishing up with some example problems. Starting with a simple liner DC machine the course takes you through rotating DC motors and generators, Induction motors and finishing with synchronous motors and generators. You will find several examples of sample problems with the final chapter dedicated to just that. This course is intended both for the novice as well as a review for those who have previously studied the subject matter.
