Course Learning Objectives - CLO

 After finishing the course successfully, the student shall:

- apply concepts from basic electromagnetics to determine the inductance, capacitance, and resistance of single and three phase transmission lines.
- derive the relationships between the voltage and current on a transmission line, and be able to solve for the voltage or current at any point along the line
- derive the model for short, medium and long transmission line
- know the standard model for a real transformer and understand how winding losses, eddy currents, hysteresis losses, leakage flux, and finite magnetic permeability affect the model parameters
- derive the voltage and current relationships for the ideal and practical transformer models
- understand the rationale behind per unit analysis, and be able to use per unit analysis to solve single and three phase circuits
- understand the single line diagram and be able to derive the impedance and reactance diagrams
- Analyze power systems under abnormal operating conditions (symmetrical short circuit)
- assess tariff systems
- understand basic protection systems
- calculate the most economical cross sectional area of a conductor
