Electrical network simulation
What it’s about:
We offer expert services for calculating current and voltage waveforms in networks created through computer simulation, under various fault and switching scenarios.
To whom:
Final result:
- Research helps determine system behavior in various scenarios where testing involves significant risk.
- It can be used to determine why the system is not functioning as expected.
Examples of research topics:
- Overvoltages caused by earth faults and conductor breaks
- Transformer inrush current surges
- Propagation of voltage sags caused by short circuits in the network
- Oscillation in voltage transformers
- Operation of protective relays during switching changes
- Functionality of disconnection protection
- Connection of suction circuits to the network
- Connection of a wind power plant to the network
- Propagation of harmonics in the network
