FAIRFIELD UNIVERSITY - SOE
EE377/ECE477:
Power Security and Reliability
Preliminary - Summer, 2015
This course focuses on Power System Protection and Relaying
to allow the design of robust and reliable power systems. After reviewing the
need for protection of power system elements (motors, generators, transformers,
and transmission/distribution lines), the course: Explores developments in the
creation of smarter, more flexible protective systems based on advances in the
computational power of digital devices and the capabilities of communication
systems that can be applied within the power grid, Examines the regulations
related to power system protection and how they impact the way protective
relaying systems are designed, applied, set, and monitored, Considers the
evaluation of protective systems during system disturbances and describes the
tools available for analysis, Addresses the benefits and problems associated
with applying microprocessor-based devices in protection schemes' Contains an
expanded discussion of internal protection requirements at dispersed generation
facilities. MatLab is used to solve homework problems and do team design
projects.

Academic Dishonesty:
Students
are sometimes unsure of what constitutes academic dishonesty. In all academic work, students are expected
to submit materials that are their own and are to include attribution for any
ideas or language that are not their own.
Examples of dishonest conduct include, but are not limited to:
•
Falsification
of academic records or grades, including but not limited to any act of
falsifying information on an official academic document, grade report, class
registration document or transcript.
•
Cheating,
such as copying examination answers from materials such as crib notes or
another student’s paper.
•
Collusion,
such as working with another person or persons when independent work is
prescribed. .
•
Inappropriate
use of notes.
•
Falsification
or fabrication of an assigned project, data, results, or sources.
•
Giving,
receiving, offering, or soliciting information in examinations.
•
Using
previously prepared materials in examinations, tests, projects, or quizzes.
•
Destruction
or alteration of another student’s work.
•
Submitting
the same paper or report for assignments in more than one course without the
prior written permission of each instructor.
•
Appropriating
information, ideas, or the language of other people or writers and submitting
it as one’s own to satisfy the requirements of a course – commonly known as
plagiarism.
Plagiarism constitutes theft and deceit.
Assignments (compositions, term papers, computer programs, etc. .)
acquired either in part or in whole from commercial sources, publications,
students, or other sources and submitted as one’s own original work will be
considered plagiarism.
•
Unauthorized
recording, sale, or use of lectures and other instructional materials.
In the event of such
dishonesty, professors are to award a grade of zero for the project, paper, or
examination in question, and may record an F for the course itself. When appropriate, expulsion may be
recommended. . A notation of the event is made in the student’s file in the
academic dean’s office. The student will
receive a copy.
