Basic Protection Techniques in LV Distribution

Seminar

About the CPD Course

This seminar provides an overview of fundamental protection methods in low-voltage (LV) distribution systems. Participants will gain insights into the origins and features of typical fault types in LV distribution, such as Overcurrent, Earth leakage, Arc fault, and Transient Overvoltage. Through detailed explanations, the seminar introduces various protection techniques (fuse, ACB, MCCB, MCB, RCD, AFDD, SPD etc.), introducing their operational principles and distinct characteristics. Additionally, the applications on AC &amp, DC protection devices, motor protection, and cable protection, will be demonstrated to enhance understanding.

LV Power Distribution, Selectivity & Back-up Protection

Siemens

This seminar introduces the essential principles of Selectivity & Back-up Protection in Low Voltage (LV) power distribution systems. Attendees will gain a thorough understanding of different types of protection co-ordination, total, partial selectivity and back-up protection, different selectivity techniques, current-based, time-based and energy-based selectivity, where and why selectivity is used, how relevant product standards required, and what are the support tools for achieving the selectivity & back-up protection in order to optimize power distribution networks for efficiency, reliability, and safety.
