Transmission Operation

This week-long class focuses on the operation, relay protection, voltage control, and inter-Balancing Authority impact on the BES. On completion, each student receives 30 NERC CE hours, with five NERC CE hours of NERC Standards and 12 NERC CE hours of simulation included in the 30 total CE hours. Each student also receives six Emergency Operation hours.
