Advanced Training:TOV Studies in PSCAD

Service Description

⋯Advanced Training on Temporary Overvoltage (TOV) Studies in PSCAD⋯ Temporary Overvoltage (TOV) events can cause insulation failure, equipment damage, and grid instability. This training provides a structured approach to understanding TOV causes, system impacts, and mitigation strategies using PSCAD. Attendees will gain hands-on experience in modeling and analyzing TOV, including effects on transformers, generators, and renewable energy integration. The course covers IEEE/IEC standards, best practices for insulation coordination, and real-world case studies to ensure effective TOV management. Course Content • TOV Basics: Causes (fault clearing, load rejection, islanding), impact on power systems. • Industry Standards: IEEE/IEC guidelines for insulation coordination and surge protection. • PSCAD Simulations: Modeling TOV, assessing transformer and generator responses. • Mitigation Techniques: Surge arresters, reactive power compensation, controlled switching. • Case Studies: TOV incidents in power grids and renewable energy applications. Who Should Attend? Designed for electrical engineers, grid operators, and protection specialists working on power system stability, insulation coordination, and transient analysis. Prior PSCAD experience helpful but not required.
