Description
Mastering Interlocking in BESS Substations:Substations are the backbone of power transmission and distribution networks, ensuring the safe and reliable flow of electricity. Understanding their fundamental components and interlocking systems is crucial for electrical engineers, protection specialists, and substation designers. This course provides a structured and practical approach to mastering primary equipment, interlocking mechanisms, and the latest advancements in substation automation.The course begins with a foundational understanding of primary substation equipment, covering isolators, earth switches, circuit breakers, current transformers (CTs), voltage transformers (VTs), and surge arrestors. Each component is explored in detail, with a focus on its operational principles, applications, and best practices in design and maintenance. Engineers will gain a clear understanding of how these devices contribute to substation reliability and safety.Moving forward, the course delves into single-line diagrams (SLDs) and elevation reviews, helping engineers interpret and analyze substation layouts effectively. A special emphasis is placed on on-load bus transfer schemes, which ensure a smooth transition of power sources in substations. The distinction between primary and secondary engineering is also thoroughly discussed, helping professionals understand their interdependencies in substation design and protection.A major highlight of this course is its in-depth exploration of interlocking systems, particularly for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). As the power industry shifts towards renewable energy integration, BESS solutions play a vital role in grid stability. The course covers BESS-specific SLDs, interlock tables, and practical examples of interlocking to enhance understanding of how these systems are implemented in real-world applications.Additionally, the course introduces Castell key interlocking systems, widely used for mechanical safety interlocking in substations. Participants will learn how these systems prevent unsafe operations and enhance personnel safety. The course also covers Bay Control Units (BCUs) and their role in implementing soft logic-based interlocking strategies.A key aspect of modern substations is GOOSE communication, an advanced IEC 61850 protocol enabling real-time, peer-to-peer communication for protection and interlocking functions. The course provides an overview of GOOSE messaging, its applications in interlocking, and how it enhances system efficiency and flexibility.By the end of this course, participants will:*Understand the operational principles and applications of primary substation equipment.* Interpret and analyze single-line diagrams and elevation drawings.* Gain expertise in on-load bus transfer schemes and primary vs. secondary engineering concepts.* Learn about interlocking fundamentals, including traditional and advanced digital interlocking methods.* Explore interlocking strategies for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).* Understand Castell key interlocking and its applications in substation safety.* Familiarize themselves with Bay Control Units (BCUs) and their role in soft logic-based interlocking.* Learn the basics of GOOSE communication and its application in substation automation.This course is designed for electrical engineers, substation designers, protection engineers, and professionals seeking to expand their knowledge in modern substation engineering. Whether you are new to the field or looking to enhance your expertise, this course provides the necessary technical foundation to excel in substation design, automation, and protection systems.
This course is for electrical engineers, protection and control engineers, substation designers, commissioning and testing engineers, BESS and renewable energy professionals, utility and grid operators, SCADA and automation engineers, as well as electrical engineering students and fresh graduates seeking expertise in substation equipment, interlocking strategies, and modern protection systems.
