Electrics and Power Systems

A transformers basic job is to increase or decrease power. There are critical pieces of equipment that need to be protected and maintained to a high level to ensure maximum productivity is available throughout its life span. This course will give you a greater understanding of the standard type three-phase power transformer used within the industry today.

Basic requirements Electrical; Mathematics; Trigonometry.

Having an understanding of the laws and theorems related to three-phase electrical power systems will aid in your course absorption. In this course, you will learn exactly what 'Per Unit Analysis' is and how manufacturers of equipment use it to rate their equipment.
