Course content

The course consists of three parts that together give an overview of and introduction to high voltage technology. The first part introduces high voltage infrastructure and the technologies and functions used. This includes the construction of the power system and justification of voltage levels and topologies, and the involved components with their functionality. Trends and developments are covered. The second part gives a short introduction to stresses, design and calculations. This includes different types of overvoltages and electrostatic fields. The third part addresses digitalization trends I high voltage installations with emphasis on protection, sensors and condition monitoring. This includes an overview of measurement principles, the connection between measured quantities and physical condition, and protection against power system faults.

Learning outcome

Knowledge:

After completing the course, the candidate:

  • Understands the justification for selection and layout of power systems and voltage levels and has a clear overview of conventional high voltage installations and the components and functions involved.
  • Has a good understanding of the stresses that applies to high voltage components and fundamental solutions to limit the consequence of these.
  • Has an overview of methods for condition monitoring and protection og high voltage installations and how this is developed and digitalized today.

Skills:

After completing the course, the candidate:

  • Can communicate the layout of high voltage installations based on observations and drawings.
  • Can make simple measurements and calculations of electric stresses and document this.
  • Can use computer programs for simple calculations of electrical fields and transients.
  • Can chose type of condition monitoring and protection measures.

General competence:

After completing the course, the candidate has obtained increased capabilities of:

  • Multi-disciplinary cooperation.
  • To communicate with precision to peers and non-specialists with technical reports and presentations.
  • To work in the laboratory in a safe and effective way.
  • Develop reports and protocols.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures. Field trips, excursions and laboratory work. Hand calculation and computer exercises. Mini-project.

Further on evaluation

Portfolio with projects that counts 100 % towards the grade. In addition, an oral presentation that may adjust the final grade.
