Symmetrical Components for Three Phase Power Analysis

A tool for the study of asymmetrical three phase voltages and current analysis

Created by: Graham Van Brunt P. Eng., B.Sc.
Lead Instructor and Founder of PSPT

What Will I Learn?

• In this course, you will learn exactly what symmetrical components are, their main advantages, how manufacturers of equipment use it.
• You will learn how to use symmetrical components to simplify asymmetrical three phase voltages and current and understand fault analysis.
• Including Positive, Negative and Zero Sequence Components
• You can later apply this knowledge to single phase to ground, two phase to ground, phase-to-phase, and three phase fault conditions.
• This course may be considered a prerequisite to the course "short circuit analysis for high-voltage three-phase systems".

Requirements

• The student should have an understanding of the laws and theorems related to three phase electrical power systems.

Target audience

• The targeted audience is Managers, Engineers, Technologists, Maintenance Personnel working in the electrical power protection industry.
