ECE 1701 - FUNDAMENTALS OF ELECTRIC POWER ENGINEERING

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This is a first course in electric power engineering for electrical and computer engineers. The course provides the fundamental background to solve some common problems in electric power engineering, and to design power systems using engineering assumptions based on this background. The main objective is to cover topics in AC single phase and three phase power, transformers, transmission lines and electric machinery by integrating their knowledge of linear circuit analysis, electricity, and magnetism to these power systems topics. Students will also gain knowledge of power systems simulation using the PowerWorld simulator. This course will provide the prerequisite knowledge for the study of load flow, symmetrical components, and fault analysis which will be covered in a later course.
