- power plants and their components
Basic Department's activities concerning the above areas are:
Research work in the field of power engineering
- research work of a broad scope in the field of power engineering and electrical industry,
- consulting services for generation, transmission and distribution utilities,
- computer simulations of electrical transients and numeric analyses,
- over-voltage analyses and insulation co-ordination,
- checking of construction protection systems against lightning strokes and dimensioning of over-voltage protection,
- analysis of accident events and identification of causes of major damages and failures taking place on high-voltage equipment
Tests and measurements on high-voltage equipment
- tests and measurements in the High-Voltage Laboratory,
- insulation diagnostics of the high-voltage equipment in power plants and their components,
- in-service measurements of voltage and current transients in the system,
- checking of the accuracy class of the voltage instrument transformers
Participation in power plants and their components construction
- consulting services in adoption of new technologies and providing solutions for a particular power system,
- participation in determination of appropriate technical parameters, selection and purchase of the high-voltage equipment,
- assessment of equipment and technical solution adequacy,
