Power System Syllabus

This document outlines the course objectives, outcomes, units of study, and references for a Power Systems I course. The course aims to provide an understanding of the basics of power systems including their general structure, microgrids, and smart grids. It covers topics like power generation economics, transmission lines, performance of transmission lines, distribution system design, switchgear and protection. The course outcomes are that students will be able to describe power system structures, design electrical and mechanical parameters, analyze different distribution systems and power quality issues, and understand power quality and conservation measures. Protection schemes are also designed.
