This module aims to provide participants with in-depth knowledge and competency in power systems fault analysis and in the design and operation of protective schemes/devices for the protection of electrical equipment and personnel. The theories on fault calculation methods and principles of power system protection taught in the lecture will be complemented by hands-on practice using industrial standard computer-aided engineering software such as the Electrical Transient and Analysis Program (ETAP). Techniques on the design of protection and coordination schemes based on different design criteria and industry standards are emphasised in this module.
Modelling of Fundamental Power Grid Components

“Protective relays and devices have been developed over 100 years ago to provide “last line” of defense for the electrical systems. They are intended to quickly identify a fault and isolate it so the balance of the system continue to run under normal conditions. The selection and applications of protective relays and their associated schemes shall achieve reliability, security, speed and properly coordinated. Meanwhile, protective devices have also gone through significant advancements from the electromechanical devices to the multifunctional, numerical devices of present day. As the protected components of the electrical systems have changed in size, configuration and their critical roles in the power system supply, some protection aspects need to be revisited (i.e. the use of protection systems to reduce arc flash energy in distribution systems).” – Rasheek Rifaat, P.Eng, IEEE Life Fellow, IEEE Southern Alberta Section PES/IAS Joint Chapter Technical Seminar, November 2016
Find out more about the Modular Certification Courses - Electrical Power Engineering (EPE).
These modules are stackable towards a Postgraduate Certificate in Electrical Power Engineering (PGCert EPE) or can be taken individually as a single module as follows:
Each module carries 6 ECTS credits which are stackable for graduate qualification of PGCert EPE. Candidates who pass any of the above 4 modules (totalling 24 credits) with a CGPA of 2.5 or more will be awarded the Postgraduate Certificate in Electrical Power Engineering (PGCert EPE) by SIT. All the above modules are subsidised by SkillsFuture Singapore. Eligible individual may enjoy up to a maximum of 5 subsidised modules.
The above modules have been renamed from EPE60XX to EEE60XX for modules starting from Sep 2019. There is otherwise no change in stackability towards the Postgraduate Certificate in Electrical Power Engineering
