Electrical Maintenance

Zipped file containing materials that introduces the student to transformers and substation equipment as used in electric power systems. Discusses in detail, basic concepts including one line diagrams, three-phase power, the use of the per unit system, and power factor. Students will be introduced to the use of transformers and substations in electric power distribution including power factor correction and protective devices. Important aspects of transformers including basic transformer operation, transformer efficiencies, transformer protection, types of distribution transformers, and short and open circuit tests of transformers will be described and discussed. Important aspects of distribution substations will be described including common substation layout designs and criteria, substation protection, faults, and the basic substation elements.
