Description
Through my practical experience (19 years) in the field of electrical substations and working with various consulting offices in the design of medium voltage distribution networks for many important projects that require taking into account the accuracy in various electrical calculations, in addition to my obtaining a master's degree in the engineering sciences in electrical power and machines engineering, entitled "Detection and Identification of Electrical Power Quality Problems using the advanced Artificial Intelligence Technique (LSTM). This course was prepared using the best engineering programs that link the academic/theoretical side with practical/reality in the High Voltage and Extra-High Voltage substations in addition to the Medium Voltage distribution networks.
This unique way of explanation and preparation of the course has been thought to suit all engineering and technical levels, starting from students of engineering universities and various technical institutes and even specialized engineers with high experience in the field of electrical power and distribution systems, especially the electrical contracting field, distribution networks and consulting offices.
This course was explained in a practical way based on the simple theoretical speech and attention to the practical explanation and reality pictures so that we can link the academic/theoretical study with what is actually present in the practical reality for the actual application after passing this course.
This course is closely related to electrical distribution systems and various contracting works. In this course, I offer the following
