I am trying to find a good DG course that I can take. I haven't found many options. I wanted to see who here has suggestions of specific institutions offering courses in continuing ed for Distributed Generation. I understand the basics and have read quite a few technical papers, but I am...

When testing, we have everything run through test switches. This way we are testing the entire panel to ensure correct wiring as well as operation. We also test all trip signals to breakers. We don't want to trip the breaker a ton of times, so we test any outputs associated with...
Great feedback so far. I have Omicorn and Megger both coming to do a demo.
A little more info on what I will be using it for... It will be 5A CT's. It will be mainly SEL 351, 551, 387, 587 implementing settings that I have created. I like using the I/O's a lot.
I am looking into relay test equipment currently. Does anyone have any advise? I have looked at Omicron and Megger some. I really don't know where to start. What other manufacturers are good? I am looking at testing overcurrent, differential and distance relays (SEL) in substation and...
Thanks UtilityGy. I do have a good understanding of phasor diagram analysis. That is good to know though. I have messed with some of the software you mentioned.
Wow, great feedback. Thanks everyone. prc, that att.net link you posted is dead. I saw there is an SEL book coming out soon. Are their books good usually? Though I work almost exclusively, I don't want each paragraph referencing a specific model SEL relay.
So, I kind of got immersed into the relaying world pretty quick. I have both a power and a controls background so it is right up my alley. I have been doing this for about 2 years and feel like I have a good understanding. Now, I want to fill in my background a little. I am looking for some...
david, thank you. Unfortunately, I realize having a breaker for each transformer would be optimal, but is not a possibility in this project. That would solve all of my problems, but just isn't feasable.
As for what you say in the first paragraph, if the 387's are set at half of the level of...
I am fairly new to realying and have a project that has posed a new problem for me. This project is at a 115-69kV Step-Down Station. To increase capacity of the station, a second transformer was added in parallel with the existing one. There is one high side Circuit Breaker and one low side...
