PWRS-1001Power Systems 1
This course is designed to familiarize students with the transmission of electric power over an electrical power system. Topics covered include power system components and terminology, introducing the per-unit system for power system calculations, determining circuit constants of overhead transmission lines, modeling of transmission lines, power flow, transmission line limits and stability, distributing system layouts, and monitoring of power systems. PSCAD (EMTDC) software will be introduced and students will get a more realistic view of power systems by simulating major power systems components. Co-requisite: CODE-2000 Electrical Practices and Design.
