OVERVIEWThis course will provide non-technical individuals with the basic understanding of substations and what they mean to the overall power grid. The course will cover a wide range of topics involved in the design, construction, operation and maintenance of substations and switchyards. It will also cover important safety topics to be considered. The intention is that after this course, people who are not substation design engineers will gain a familiarity and confidence to oversee various aspects of a substation and allow them to more effectively manage their responsibilities as they pertain to substation projects.

LEARNING OUTCOMES• Get introduced to the electric utility grid system including microgrids and substation types and differences• Look at basic substation drawings and diagrams• Review the function and purpose of all major substation components and equipment• Discuss what digital substations means and the components of them• Review related topics such as: distribution equipment, renewable energy interconnects, energy storage and power

quality solutions• List the causes and remedies for substation faults• Review station security through physical and cyber overviews• Expand on managing substation construction projects including the process, schedules, groups and tasks• Review safety in substations

“EUCI courses have three fundamental characteristics: substance, substance, and substance. Time and money well spent.”

Assistant GM-Power Supply, Burbank Water and Power

“This was a very good course for someone with my experience and knowledge. I learned a lot about substations and feel like I have a more well-rounded knowledge of substations.”

Civil Engineer, Shive-Hattery

“Good course for the entry level personnel, helps you understand the concept of what substation does and purpose.”

Project Manager, Newkirk Electric
