Advanced Training: TRV Studies in PSCAD

Service Description

⋯Advanced Training on Transient Recovery Voltage (TRV) Studies in PSCAD⋯ Transient Recovery Voltage (TRV) is a key factor in circuit breaker operation, affecting power system stability and equipment protection. This training provides a comprehensive understanding of TRV characteristics, modeling, and mitigation strategies using PSCAD. Participants will learn to simulate TRV events, analyze circuit breaker performance, and apply industry best practices for mitigating excessive TRV in high-voltage networks. The course covers IEEE and IEC standards, practical case studies, and hands-on simulations to ensure a solid grasp of TRV challenges and solutions. Course Content • TRV Fundamentals: Definition, waveform characteristics, and impact on circuit breakers. • Analysis & Standards: IEEE/IEC compliance, TRV in transmission and distribution networks. • PSCAD Simulations: Modeling TRV in fault conditions, circuit breaker response evaluation. • Mitigation Strategies: Surge arresters, damping resistors, controlled switching. • Case Studies: Real-world TRV failures and protection techniques. Who Should Attend? Ideal for power system engineers, grid operators, and researchers involved in circuit breaker testing, insulation coordination, and transient analysis. No prior PSCAD experience is required, step-by-step guidance is provided.
