CHP131 – Protection in Power Plants –

Applications

Course goal
The participants acquire in-depth application knowledge for power plants that enable them to design
protection application solutions in practice.

Main learning objectives Topics

The participants will be able to:
— Learn the development steps and design a
protection concept
— Understand and assess customer specifica-
tions and provider quotations
— Study protection principles and evaluate the
appropriate protection concepts
— Design protection schemes for generators
and unit transformers and select important
protection functions
— Coordinate different protections and estab-
lish selective and graded schemes
— Calculate the settings of protection func-
tions
— Specify and verify instrument transformers
— Introduce different application cases
Participant profile
Consultants and employees from the electricity
supply industry. Technical personnel from ABB.
Prerequisites
Engineering degree, technical college qualifica-
tions or equivalent. Basic knowledge of protec-
tion as well as PC based data processing.
Recommended course or equivalent experience:
— Introduction
Positioning of power devices in the power
system, faults and disturbances, generator
and transformer parameters, protection
functions overview etc.
— Generator protection application and func-
tions
Protection for stator fault, rotor fault, abnor-
mal operating and system backup like: dif-
ferential, stator earth-fault, interturn, rotor
earth-fault, 100% stator earth-fault, re-
stricted earth-fault, thermal overload, over-
voltage, overcurrent, negative sequence,
overflux, loss of excitation, breaker failure,
pole slip etc.
— Station transformer application and func-
tions
Differential, restricted earth fault, thermal
overload etc.
— Auxiliary protection application and func-
tions
Overcurrent, directional overcurrent, earth
fault etc. Communication and Supervision
— Particular application cases
Small, large and parallel generator, splitted
phases, unit-, excitation- and auxiliary trans-
former etc.
