Course Overview
In theoretical and hands-on sessions the tests are explained and applied at the OMICRON test towers. The towers feature distance and differential relays of different manufacturers and enable realistic test situations by simulating the bays related to the relays. During the hands-on sessions you will work in small groups of up to 3 persons. Our experienced trainer provides you with relevant background information and takes your specific questions into account during the training.
Course Objective
- Perform commissioning, trouble-shooting and periodic tests of protection relays
- Test overcurrent, distance and transformer differential relays with the OMICRON Test Universe
- Create and modify automated test plans and customized test reports
- Use the OMICRON Test Universe from scratch
Who Should Attend??
Technical staff from utilities, transmission and distribution networks, railway grids, service companies and manufacturers involved in protection testing
