This course is the second in a series of five courses on the design of relaying and system protection programs for electric utilities.
These courses describe the fundamental concepts of electric system protection and provide detailed examples of the application of relaying.
In most cases, the material is based on electromechanical relays to give the reader a strong understanding of current relaying practices.
This second course explains the function, design characteristics, and operating principles of instrument transformers.
Current transformers (CTs), potential transformers (PTs), and capacitive potential devices are covered.
This series is divided into five separate courses. Each course essentially stands on its own, and the courses do not necessarily need to be taken in the order listed.
However, for a thorough understanding, it makes sense to take the courses as presented.
Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained
This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- The purpose of an instrument transformer
- The application of current and potential transformers to protective relay schemes
- The design of CT’s and PT’s, along with their ratings, accuracy class, and other factors influencing their use in protective relays
- Capacitive voltage devices which are commonly used in transmission voltage applications
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 15 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
