Course number : EE-422

Course Title : Power System Protection

Course pre Requisite : Fourth Year Standing

Credit units : 3 units lecture

Course duration : 36 hours lecture
Course Description:

This course provides a thorough treatment of power system protection. Critical elements of
protection philosophy are presented. Electromechanical and microprocessor-based relay
technologies are studied. Traditional (time-based overcurrent coordination) and innovative
(communication-based overcurrent detection) methods of radial system protection are
explored. Instrument transformer selection and application is covered, followed by
application schemes of protective relays for the protection of A-C generators and motors,
transformers, buses, and lines.

Course Objectives:

1. Students to become familiar with power system protection philosophies 2.

Students to learn how to coordinate protective devices using time-current curves
