    <Content>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This unit will cover the following:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Part 1: Fundamentals of Electrical Energy &amp;amp; Power System Equipment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Review of fundamental background for electrical energy systems:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Introduction to electrical power systems and materials (capturing also their risk of failure, recovery, and sustainability properties).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Basic design and equivalent circuits for Switchgear, Transformers, Lines and Cables.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Vectors in Power Systems, impedance, real and reactive power.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Example class on equivalent circuit models of components and relevant numerical calculations, including phasors.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Part 2: Introduction to Power System Analysis &amp;amp; Symmetrical Fault Calculations&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Introduction to Power System Analysis (PSA):&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Per-Unit system (definition, choice of base quantities, equivalent circuits).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Formulation of power flow problem and power transfer capability (bus quantities, direction of power flow, transmission of real and reactive power).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Basic techniques to solve power flow problem (analytical and iterative methods).&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Example class on per unit 2-bus power flow calculation.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;2.
