Anotation:

The subject provides basic knowledge about the CR power system structure and operational characteristics and electrical power systems. Then it informs about the electric strength of insulators, machines and other power system devices. It presents knowledge about damaging phenomena of insulation systems and procedures for their elimination. It enables to meet insulation systems testing and diagnostics problems.

1. Electrical power system.
2. Electrical power sources.
3. Nuclear and hydro power plants.
4. Transmission systems of electrical energy.
5. Electrical power distribution systems.
6. Testing and high voltage laboratories equipment.
7. High voltage measuring techniques.
8. Electrical strength of insulation systems.
9. Electrical discharges in power systems.
10. Switching and protective devices.
11. Failures states in electrical power systems.
12. Testing and diagnoses.
13. Electrical power engineering and the environment.
14. Renewable power sources.
