Practical Protection Testing in Wind Power Plants

Join us for a webinar to explore the practical aspects of testing protection systems in wind turbine generation. The webinar will start with an overview of different wind turbine types and common interconnection and protection designs.

 

The core of the session will focus on diverse protection schemes used on wind turbines and wind turbine generation sites. We will cover wind turbine generator protection as well as the different considerations for protection of buses, feeders, transformers, and lines associated with these types of systems. The presentation will describe the challenges behind the design and operation of these IBR connected generation systems, for system stability, frequency control and fault detection. The impact of relevant standards and NERC regulations on protection design and testing will be reviewed.

 

The webinar will culminate with a detailed look at secondary and primary injection testing with emphasis on system rather than element testing and functional rather than function testing, providing attendees with actionable knowledge to ensure the robust protection of wind power assets.
