Substation Grounding and Ground Fault Protection: Fundamentals, Standards, and Solutions
The Substation Grounding and Ground Fault Protection course explains the fundamental role of substation grounding and the requirements of the IEEE80 Standard, as well as different solutions for equipment grounding and protection.
This in-depth course explores the critical aspects of substation grounding and ground fault protection. Participants will learn about various grounding systems, methods for determining the appropriate grounding configuration, and the protection techniques required to ensure safety and reliability. The course covers soil resistivity measurements, grounding grid design, and the assessment of ground potential rise (GPR), step, and touch voltages. Attendees will also understand the importance of proper grounding for different types of electrical installations and the maintenance practices necessary to keep grounding systems in good shape. This course is ideal for electrical engineers, substation maintenance professionals, and anyone involved in the design and operation of electrical substations.
