Power System Analysis

The Power System Analysis Training Course delivers a clear, practical, and structured understanding of how electrical power systems operate under normal and abnormal conditions. While many analytical methods are commonly taught in abstract mathematical form, this course explains them in a straightforward, intuitive, and industry-relevant manner. Concepts such as phasors, the per-unit system, three-phase power, and symmetrical components are broken down into accessible explanations that support confident real-world application.

Participants will learn how to model key system elements—transmission lines, transformers, generators, and loads—so that system behaviour can be accurately assessed during planning, operation, and fault scenarios. Beyond theoretical insight, the course emphasises how power systems respond in practice, enabling delegates to diagnose system conditions, analyse contingencies, and enhance system stability.

This Power System Analysis Training Course equips professionals with essential tools to perform power flow studies, short-circuit calculations, and transient stability assessments. By the end of the course, participants will have a strong intuitive understanding of system behaviour and the analytical confidence to evaluate electrical networks effectively.

This Power System Analysis training course will feature:

• Review of phasors, per-unit and three-phase power concepts
• Modeling information for transmission lines, transformers, generators, and loads
• Power flow analysis and system operation
• Short circuit analysis including symmetrical components
• Transient stability analysis

This Power System Analysis Training Course develops the analytical capability required to interpret and evaluate the dynamic behaviour of electrical networks. Delegates will learn how to apply standard industry methods to both steady-state and contingency conditions, enabling more efficient and reliable decision-making.

By the end of this Power System Analysis training course, participants will be able to:

• Perform three-phase power system calculations using phasors and the per-unit system
• Model transmission lines, transformers, generators, and loads accurately
• Conduct power flow analysis and understand fundamental system operating principles
• Apply symmetrical component theory to short-circuit fault studies
• Understand transient stability and apply the equal-area criterion
