SUMMARY:Johannesburg 2-Day Workshop: Mastering Power System Protection - Principles and Design Techniques
DESCRIPTION:Mastering Power System Protection: Principles and Design Techniques\nJoin Professor Jerry Walker\, for a comprehensive two-day workshop. \nBook before 1 August 2024 to take advantage of the early bird discount! Additionally\, you will be entitled to a 25% returning student discount to one of EIT’s Professional Certificate of Competency Courses.  \nAttendees will be able to claim CPD points for this workshop.  \nWorkshop Overview: \nThe course provides you with an opportunity to understand Electrical Power System Protection dynamics. You will gain an understanding of the principles and design techniques necessary to select and apply overcurrent\, differential relays to the protection of lines\, busbars\, cables\, transformers and generators. This course will help delegates to understand the capabilities of electro-mechanical and numerical protection and that electrical network integrity depends on a well-conceived and correctly implemented protection philosophy that satisfies the conflicting requirements of dependability\, security of speed. You will learn how numerical or micro-processor based relaying schemes operate\, their advantages and disadvantages compared with electro-mechanical relaying schemes and why today’s numerical protection unit is not just a relay but a multi-function protection control and monitoring system. The course will further expose the delegates to the practical calculation procedures for fault currents and relay settings. \nWorkshop Outline:\n\nNeed for Protection\nFault Types & Their Effects\nCalculation of Short Circuit Currents\nSystem Earthing\nProtection System Components\nFuses\nInstrument Transformers\nRelays\nCo-Ordination by Time Grading\nUnit Protection\nTransformer Protection\nBusbar Protection\nMotor Protection\nGenerator Protection\n\nWho Should Attend: \n\nEngineers Technologists and Technicians in Planning\, Plant\, Project and Design Environments for both Power systems\, Instrumentation & Control\nMaintenance and Consulting Engineers\nProject and Engineering Managers\nSafety Professionals\nDesign Draughtsman\nField & Service Technicians and Electricians\nEngineers\, Technologists and Technicians in Training\n\nAbout the Presenter: \n \nProfessor Jerry Walker\, Managing Director of KEI CONSULTING (PTY) LTD and Director of WALMET CONSULTANCY (PTY) LTD \nAfter completing his National Higher Diploma in Engineering (Electrical) in 1986 and spending almost 23 years in industry\, Prof. Walker joined Vaal Triangle Technikon – now known as Vaal University of Technology (VUT) as a lecturer in the Department of Power Engineering. In 1996 he completed his BTech degree and in 1997 started with post graduate studies\, specializing in diagnostic testing of XLPE-insulated cables. In 2004 Prof Walker completed his DTech degree at VUT. Title of his Doctoral thesis: “Diagnostic Evaluation of Water Tree Aged XLPE-Insulated Cables”. In 2005 he was appointed as Associate Professor at VUT and then as Head\, Institute for High Voltage Studies. He retired from VUT in 2006. \nWorkshop Details: \nNetworking opportunities\, including refreshments and lunch over the two days\, will be organized.  \n\nDate: Wednesday 21 – Thursday 22 August 2024\nTime: 08:30 am – 4:30 pm\nLocation: EIT South Africa – Unit 3\, Elevation Gardens\, Waterfall Office Park\, Bekker Road\, Midrand South Africa. Map Link\n\nStandard price for the full event: R6\,500 per ticket (VAT inclusive\, price from 1 August 2024)\nEarly bird special price for the full event: R5\,800 per ticket (VAT inclusive\, this discount expires 1 August 2024)\n\nContact us for more information. \nDon’t miss this opportunity to enhance your skills and knowledge in Power Systems Protection.  \nRegister now to secure your spot!
