Introduction & Intermediate Protection Training Package (P2 + P1) (TP2)
TP2
This package combines the P2 and P1 at a discounted rate.
The P2 course explains the operation of electrical protection devices and their application to different zones of a power system. It involves a number of practical exercises and demonstrations combined with classroom theory.
The P1 course covers the application and testing of electrical protection in-depth and involves a number of practical exercises and demonstrations combined with classroom theory. A wide range of protective devices is used during the course including electromechanical, microprocessor-based and numerical relays.
