ETAP: Electrical Power System Analysis
Description:
The ETAP: Electrical Power System Analysis course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of electrical power systems and how to analyze and optimize them using the ETAP software. The course starts with an introduction to ETAP, covering its key concepts, terminology, and the basics of power system analysis. Participants learn how to create one-line diagrams, input data, and model systems within the software. The second day delves into load flow and short circuit analysis, teaching techniques for performing load flow studies and short circuit calculations, along with practical exercises and real-world case studies. On the third day, the focus shifts to arc flash analysis and protection coordination, where participants explore IEEE standards, relay coordination, and protection settings, followed by practical exercises and case studies. The fourth day covers transient stability and motor starting analysis, providing techniques for assessing system stability and motor performance. The final day introduces harmonic analysis and grounding techniques, along with advanced ETAP features and tools, followed by practical exercises and final case studies to reinforce the concepts learned throughout the course.
