Protection Systems in Low and Medium Voltage Grids

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.

This course focuses on:

  • The electrical behaviour of protection devices and photovoltaic generation systems
  • Grid calculation methods
  • Protection system planning principles
  • Protection testing
  • Compliance monitoring
