Chapter 2. Review of Symmetrical Components and Fault Currents (3 weeks)
Definition of symmetrical components, transformation of load impedances into symmetrical components, symmetrical components of'series' impedances, single-phase equivalent diagrams of sequence networks for rotating machines, expression of apparent power in symmetrical components, equivalent diagrams (positive, negative, and zero sequence), and relationships for different types of faults.
Chapter 3. Elements of the Protection System: (3 weeks)
Basic structural model, Technology operation and applications of different types of relays (Current relays, voltage relays, differential current relays, directional power relays, distance relays, etc.), Voltage and current transformation.
Chapter 4. Protection of Network Elements: (5 weeks)
