Power Generation, Distribution & Transmission

Power Distribution: Power Supply for Protection & Control Systems

Introduction

The objective of this course is to stress the importance of uninterruptible power supplies for protection and control circuits and to look at different means of achieving this.

The provision of both continuous AC and continuous DC power supply is discussed and attention is paid to individual power supplies for electronic equipment. Some time is devoted to studying the operation and maintenance of the common storage battery. This area often seems to be neglected, even though it is, after all, the heart of uninterruptible power supplies.


Objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the meaning of lead-acid cell, lead-antimony, and lead calcium
  • Know the different voltage level requirements
  • Develop an understanding of the significance of specific gravity and output voltage per cell
  • Understand the meaning of sulfating
  • Know and apply safety precautions against acid
  • Gain a thorough understanding of Charger adjustments: float voltage, equalization voltage, programmed equalization, output slope, and current limiter
  • Learn about the controlled ferroresonant battery charger
  • Discover the advantages and the need for off-line UPS system and on-line UPS system and the triport UPS system
  • Learn about the importance of shield connecting leads
  • Gain knowledge of the filter capacitor usage and its features
  • Understand the need for "reliable" continuous power supplies to operate protection and control relays and circuits

Target Audience
  • Power Generation Engineers
  • Power Generation Technicians
  • Power Generation Operators
  • Maintenance personnel
  • Other technical individuals
