ECCE 421 Power System Analysis

This course is designed to address some of the concerns and challenges faced by utilities and network operators to ensure effective and reliable delivery of electrical power to all sectors of society. It provides an introduction to power systems analysis techniques under steady state conditions, including modelling of power system components (generators, transformers, transmission lines, etc.), real and reactive power flows in balanced three-phase systems, single-line diagrams, the per-unit system, and load-flow calculations. An introduction to power system fault calculations is also given, considering both balanced and unbalanced fault conditions using symmetrical components analysis.
