This 5-hour course is the seventh in a series of courses on the design of electrical substations. The courses do not necessarily have to be taken in order and, for the most part, are stand-alone courses.

This course covers non-oil filled substation equipment that is used in substations.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Identify the types of air switches used in substations.
  • Explain how air switches are rated.
  • Classify surge arresters according to their applicable characteristics.
  • Describe the margins of protection provided by surge arresters.
  • Apply the principles for selecting and using a metal oxide arrester.
  • Explain the application of instrument transformers in substations.
  • Interpret instrument transformer burden ratings.
  • Distinguish among the types of instrument transformers.
  • Identify when combination instrument transformers are used.
  • Describe the application of coupling capacitors.

Certificate of Completion

You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 30 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
