Today the T&D sector needs to strengthen the knowlegde, skills, performance and efficiency of its engineers, professionals and decision-makers.
KEMA provides professional training courses, workshops and seminars designed specially for electric utilities, grid owners and manufacturers in the area of transmission and distribution of electrical energy. Our course subjects ar closely related to our T&D systems expertise and services and focus on the practical use of knowledge. Courses are available as client on-site training and at the KEMA campus in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Learning cycle method
The trainers are specialists in their field. Our trainers apply the adult learning cycle method, making use of the experiences of the trainees. In each session the trainers will analyse the knowledge, attitude and skills of the participants by short formal group discussions based on participants' input. A series of courses have been developed to meet the needs of electrical energy T&D engineering professionals, including courses on:
power cables: construction, aging, testing, failure analysis, cable insulating materials, cross bonding, life cycle analyses
transmission line design: load cases, overload factors, sag tension, load calculations, tower geometry
power transformers: design, manufacturing, testing, inspection, applications, developments
electric power quality: harmonics, voltage dips, reliability, causes, mitigation techniques
distribution network design: basic design, losses, voltage regulation, reliability, economic calculations, power quality, effect of dispersed generation on network design
load flow analysis and short circuit calculations for power systems: short-circuit analyses, load flow analyses, evaluation of simulation results, modeling of power systems, basic calculation methods
power system reliability: basic definitions, calculation methods, stochastic analyses, use of software tools
earthing and interference of power system distribution and transmission lines: earthing of substations, electromagnetic compatibility, control and safety of earthing installations, grounding
power system protection and control systems: basic concepts, design and calculation of protection systems, developments in power system protection.
Today the T&D sector needs to strengthen the knowlegde, skills, performance and efficiency of its engineers, professionals and decision-makers.
