DESCRIPTION
Switchgear plays an important role in electricity distribution and its performance significantly affects the overall performance of the system. Failure to efficiently disconnect faults elsewhere in the network or failure in switchgear itself is costly, resulting in additional loss of supply, damage to equipment and possibly fatal injury to personnel.
It is therefore critically important that switchgear is operated and maintained correctly, within an overall asset management regime that is both economic and effective in securing a high level of system reliability.
OBJECTIVE
By the end of this course the participants will gain the following;
- Know how to calculate the short circuit level.
- The transient phenomena in power systems.
- Understand the arc phenomena and circuit interruption.
- Know the different types of circuit breakers and industrial switchgears.
- Be able to select the proper specifications of CB and switchgears.
- Know the maintenance procedures.
- Be able to do all tests on circuit breakers.
- Be able to detect circuit breakers troubleshooting.
- Know the methods of system earthing and protection requirements.
- Be able to control circuit breakers with associated relaying systems.
