The course objective is introduction to the place and role of electrical substations in the power system, calculation of short circuit current and values necessary for dimensioning of substation elements. Introduction to basic characteristics of substation elements and their selection. Introduction to basic schemes and disposition of electrical equipment in substations.

Knowledge of methods for calculation of short circuit current. Knowledge of ways of equipment dimensioning in electrical substations. Knowledge of the principles of designing of electrical substations up to the level of concept design.

Calculation of short circuit current and their characteristic values. Basic elements of substations: busbars, isolators, cables, current transformers, voltage transformers, power transformers, reactors, resistors, capacitor banks, circuit breakers, disconnectors, fuses, surge arresters and groundings. Selection of substations elements. Connection and disposition of electrical equipment in substations. Air and gas isolated substations.
