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 plant elements and their basic characteristics. Introduction to principle schemes of electrical substations and their selection, as well as the role of grounding and its dimensioning.

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. Dimensioning of electrical substations elements and their selection. Principle schemes and disposition of electrical substations. Dimensioning of grounding.

Lectures. Auditory practice. Computer practice. Computer practice classes are performed according to the assignment for the electrical substations project and in the end a report which is awarded grade is handed in.
