Description

                  Hi and welcome everyone to our course "Ultimate Electrical Power System Engineering Masterclass"


In this course, you are going to learn everything about power system analysis starting from the power system basics and fundamentals of single phase and three phase electric systems moving to designing and modelling different power system components such as: generators, transformers, and transmission lines, ending with a complete power system studies such as load flow studies and power system faults analysis.


  • Thus, this course will be your complete guide in one of the main areas of power engineering:  ( power system analysis )

  • The course is structured as follows:

Firstly, an overview on the power system structure is illustrated through the following topics:

  1. Generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption of electric power
