Description

Through my practical experience (23 years) in the field of electrical substations for medium voltage (MV), high voltage (HV), and extra-high voltage (EHV), as well as working with various consulting offices in designing electrical distribution networks for many important projects that require accuracy in various electrical calculations, in addition to obtaining a Master's degree in Engineering Sciences in Power and Electrical Machines Engineering titled "Detection and Identification of Power Quality Problems using advanced Artificial Intelligence techniques (LSTM)", this course and these very important questions were prepared using the best engineering programs that connect academic/theoretical aspects with practical/reality in high voltage and extra-high voltage electrical substations, as well as distribution networks for medium and low voltages.This unique approach to explanation and question preparation has been designed to cater to all engineering and technical levels, starting from students in engineering universities and various technical institutes, all the way to highly experienced specialized engineers in power systems and electrical distribution.The course has been explained in a practical manner, relying on simplicity in theoretical explanations and placing greater emphasis on visuals and real-life practical examples. This approach allows us to connect academic theoretical study with what actually exists in practical reality for real-world application after completing this course.The course we have is closely related to the power systems and electrical distribution systems. In this course, we provide the following:Electrical Losses in Power Networks: Solutions & Strategies* The meaning of Losses in the Electrical Power System based on some international standards such as IEEE.* The impact of losses on electricity companies (generation / transmission / distribution).* Methods for addressing losses in the Electrical Power System.* Required actions to improve and reduce the percentage of losses.* The difference between Technical Losses and Non-Technical Losses (also known as Commercial Losses).* How to calculate the cost of electrical energy consumption at different voltage levels.* How to calculate the cost of energy losses at different voltage levels.* An overview of the components of the Electrical Power System.* The difference between Electrical Power and Electrical Energy.* Losses due to the Skin Effect and its danger in increasing the temperature of electrical equipment.* Losses due to the Proximity Effect, their risk, and how to mitigate them.* Losses in Generation Stations.* Losses due to the Corona Effect.* Losses in High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) systems.* Losses in Transformers.* How to calculate the cost of losses in electrical transformers.* Losses in Transmission Lines.* Losses in Overhead Transmission Lines (OHTL).* Losses in Underground Cables.* The role of Power Factor Correction Capacitors in reducing the percentage of losses.* Losses in Distribution Networks.* The effect of Harmonics on increasing energy losses.
