Power Plant Protection: Integrated Systems

This course is designed to familiarize participants with the interaction of various systems that work together to protect plant equipment. After completing this course, participants should be able to interpret logic diagrams that represent the functions carried out by plant protection equipment. They should also be able to identify conditions that can cause a boiler trip, a turbine trip, and a generator trip.
