These Videos are copies of a set of classic lectures on video tape. The workbook referenced seems to no longer be available. They are intended for plant designers and maintenance personnel so they contain significant practical details.
lecture(1): elements of system protection Introduction/overview
of the need for System Protection and the characteristics of sensors/interrupters
used for this protection. |
|
lecture(2): fault characteristics Characteristics
of various faults in Power systems, a review of Power System fault analysis, system
grounding, and ferro-resonance. It also introduces dealing with asymmetric
faults by modelling them as the sum of three distinct symmetric systems. |
|
lecture(3): fault investigation and analysis* An
overview of the need for continuous recording and analysis of the performance
of protection systems. |
|
lecture(4): preliminary verification of installation* An
overview of the need and process for testing/commissioning protective
equipment. |
|
lecture(5): line protection Protection
of transmission lines. Different
approaches for different classes of lines/grounding system/redundancy and
zone of protection. |
|
lecture(6): pilot wire differential protection Metallic,
Power line carrier (PLC), Microwave/Telephone |
|
lecture(7): power line carrier More
detail and design/application information and digital/analog communication
techniques |
|
lecture(8): protection for system stability Stability/Instability,
Power flow, Dynamic instability, Practical Considerations. |
|
lecture(9): bus protection Bus
configurations, a more complex protection problem |
|
lecture(10): monitoring system conditions Instrumentation
(CT & VT), 3-Phase Transformers, per unit (PU) representation advantages |
|
lecture(11): transformer protection Thermal
failure protection, protecting various Y and Delta configurations, Reactor
protection |
|
lecture(12): generator protection Prime
mover/physical problems, phase to phase/ground winding failure, 3rd
harmonic currents, backup protection, flashover, frequency monitoring, loss
of excitation, ground fault detection. |
|
lecture(13): motor protection Induction
motor review, protection from insulation failure overheating, under voltage
and rapid restart. Synchronous motor review & protection (similar to a
generator). |
|
lecture(14): testing techniques Instrument accuracy, RMS vs average meters, EMC, source/meter
impedance, clamp-on current meter, shunts and Hall effect; Frequency measurement,
decibels, terminations, timers, phase, capacitance, ground isolation, scopes,
3-phase, safety measures. |
