Learn strategies to design, operate, and test reliable protection systems in modern power distribution grids. This course dives into protection systems for low and medium voltage networks, focusing on the impact of PV integration, fault isolation, grid calculations, and compliance.
Duration | 4 weeks | |
Study time | About 13 hours | |
Language | English | |
Dates | 01/07/2025 | |
Expertises | Power system planning |
This course provides a comprehensive overview of protection systems in distribution grids, with a focus on both system-level planning and component-level behaviour. Participants will explore how protection devices respond electrically under normal and fault conditions, and how fast, coordinated fault isolation helps maintain service continuity.

Grow Your Skills in Grid Protection Systems
Protection systems are essential for ensuring the safety, reliability, and quality of electricity supply in modern power distribution networks. As more distributed energy resources—especially photovoltaic (PV) systems—are integrated into low and medium voltage grids, protection strategies must evolve to manage new technical challenges and maintain stable operation.
This course provides a comprehensive overview of protection systems in distribution grids, with a focus on both system-level planning and component-level behaviour. Participants will explore how protection devices respond electrically under normal and fault conditions, and how fast, coordinated fault isolation helps maintain service continuity. The course examines key differences between low and medium voltage grids, as well as the impacts of PV integration on protection scheme design.
Further topics include grid calculation methods, protection system planning principles, testing procedures, and compliance monitoring. Special attention is given to how planning and testing strategies must adapt in decentralized grid environments with high shares of renewable generation.
