About the Course

This comprehensive training course provides an in-depth study of electrical faults, their causes, and their impact on industrial power systems. Participants will learn to calculate three-phase and unsymmetrical faults, apply symmetrical components, and employ both manual and software-assisted methods for fault analysis. The course emphasizes practical applications, ensuring participants can apply fault current calculations to select appropriate switchgear, validate system protection, and diagnose real-world faults, including in specialized areas like electric power steering systems. By integrating theoretical knowledge with hands-on examples and software tools, this program develops strong analytical and troubleshooting competencies that enhance system safety, reliability, and operational efficiency.

Learning Milestones

By the end of the program, participants will be able to:

- Understand fault current sources and their destructive potential.
