This course introduces students to the essential principles of electric power systems, providing a comprehensive understanding of electric power generation, transmission, and distribution. Students will learn to analyze and characterize single-phase and three-phase power systems, applying industry-standard software tools to solve real-world power engineering challenges. Through hands-on software applications like MATLAB/Simulink, PowerWorld, and PSCAD, students will gain skills in modeling voltage, current, and complex power, as well as in performing AC circuit analysis. The course covers time-domain, phasor, symmetrical component, and per-unit system analysis, with additional modules on three-phase transformers, transmission lines, synchronous generators, and economic dispatch. Students will also learn techniques for balanced and unbalanced short-circuit analysis, enabling them to simulate and address power system faults effectively. Prerequisites: EL-150 and MA-261. (3-0-3)
