This training course addresses the critical need for power system professionals to master both protection applications and cybersecurity aspects of Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs), which form the backbone of modern power grid protection. To meet the energy and power needs of the modern world, power grid operators increasingly use an array of IED protection that include protective relays, circuit brakers, capacitor bank switches, recloser controllers and voltage regulators with high intelligence and increased levels of connectivity. As power systems become increasingly interconnected and digitalized, understanding the intricate relationship between protection functionality and cybersecurity is essential for maintaining grid reliability and security.
The training course delivers comprehensive, hands-on training that bridges the gap between traditional protection engineering and modern cybersecurity requirements. Participants will gain practical experience with IED configuration, protection scheme design, and security implementation through real-world scenarios and laboratory exercises. The training course combines advanced protection concepts with cutting-edge cybersecurity practices, ensuring participants can implement and maintain secure, reliable protection systems that meet both operational and security requirements in today's evolving power grid environment.
