Substation engineers nowdays are involved in projects from design and conceptualization to maintenance. Because of the wide range of industries using electrical engineers, many engineers specialize in some of the sub-discipline of electrical engineering.
Depending on background and expertise, projects can include systems such as energy transmission and distribution, protection and control etc.

Testing the multi-vendor substation automation system implemented with IEC 61850
The IEC 61850 substation automation system configuration differences from earlier conventions. The configuration order of an SAS goes from larger entities to more detailed and not other way around. The… Read more
Centralized substation protection and control system for HV/MV substation
The substation is one of seven substations in the surrounding grid. The grid is separated from the rest of the regional grid and its small size and autonomy has made… Read more
Handbook for application of neutral earthing resistors (NERs) at the substation
There are two main approaches generally adopted when applying impedance earthing techniques: one NER per transformer unit and one NER per substation serving one or more transformer unit(s). For one… Read more
Design, installation, testing and maintenance of main earthing systems in substations
During the passage of earth-fault current a substation earth electrode is subjected to an earth potential rise (EPR). Potential gradients develop in the surrounding ground area and these are highest… Read more
Potential energy saving of distribution transformer in distribution network
The objective of this project is to show a method of calculation the amount of incentive and the potential energy savings of distribution transformer in distribution network for Spain. To… Read more
Calculation of short-circuit withstand current rating for low voltage switchgear
Short-circuit current rating (SCCR) is the maximum short-circuit current a component or assembly can safely withstand when protected by a specific overcurrent protective device(s) or for a specified time. Short-circuit… Read more
