Generator Operation & Protection

The course is intended to provide electric engineers with collective and recent knowledge about generators exciters including: ordering specifications, operation, analysis, maintenance, testing and protection

The course is intended to provide electric engineers with collective and recent knowledge about generators exciters including: ordering specifications, operation, analysis, maintenance, testing and protection. The information includes both theoretical and practical aspects and will be enhanced with computer software in appropriate sections.

Electric utility engineers in various departments deal with interconnected generators testing, protection, operation, stability and control. The course is also suitable for all engineers deal with emergency generators and local generation.
