Description

This course covers the essentials of a Gas-Insulated Switchgear, or shortly ‘GIS‘, that every electrical engineer who deals with power substations and electrical equipment in the field should know. You will learn all major equipment installed within GIS, such as circuit breaker or switch, disconnector, grounding switch, current and voltage transformers, busbars, busducts and interconnecting parts, SF6 gas-to-air bushing, cable box/cable sealing, power transformer interface chamber/bushing, and surge arrester.

Students will learn why gas-insulated switchgear is often used in industrial areas to fulfill high energy demands by space saving design with a minimum of cost, and why only SF6 insulated switchgear is able to fulfill these requirements.

It is important for an engineer to have a basic understanding of the basic GIS components and layout/diagrams of the GIS and GIS equipment being dealt with. This is essential you must learn before entering any substation where GIS is installed and operational.
