Course Description
This course aims to develop an understanding of the existing and future power quality issues, including their identification, measurement, and mitigation. The following topics will be covered:
- Power quality - definitions, standards, classification
- Fault clearing practice and fuse-recloser coordination
- Interruptions and voltage sag problems due to faults in power system, voltage swell problem in unfaulted phases, voltage related issues due to motor starting
- Transient overvoltage phenomenon, applications of shunt capacitor banks, analysis and mitigation of capacitor switching transients
- Sources and effects of harmonics on power system, modeling distribution system under non-sinusoidal condition, harmonic power flow, analysis and mitigation of power system harmonics, designing harmonic filters
- Impacts, analysis, and mitigation of DG/PV on distribution system power quality
