Power Systems Laboratory

Power Systems Laboratory

The power systems laboratory is an advanced lab that is designed to introduce trainees to fields of electrical power systems, power generation, transmission lines. The laboratory consists of modules that includes all necessary and advanced components to allow trainees to understand and study the previous fields. Also, the laboratory is supplied with experimental units of electrical machines for further experiments.___________________________Three-phase synchronous machine connected as a generator
