Advanced Protection of Future Networks with high penetration of DG sources
8-10th March 2011, University of Manchester (United Kingdom)

This training course was designed to give both, industrial practitioners (technicians, engineers and managers) and young academics and researchers a solid understanding of the Electricity Networks Protection issues and also Advanced Protection of Future Networks with high penetration of Distributed Generation (DG) Sources. The course organisers were the Electric Energy Systems University Enterprise Training Partnership (EES-EUTP) and School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of the University of Manchester on behalf of Network of DER laboratories and Pre- Standardisation (DERlab).
