Course overview
Generators are susceptible to a variety of faults which require different methods of detecting and clearing. Because of the complex nature of generator protection, the Generation Protection training course covers UK and EU standards which address the detection and clearing of faults in frequency, voltage, and composite systems. Generator Protection is part of the System Protection training series.
