This course deals with the testing of distance, differential, negative sequence overcurrent, reclosing, sync check, and breaker failure. The course will start with the theory related to distance and differential functions followed by hands on testing.
Day 1

Day 2
- Testing of differential relays
Day 3
- Testing of Sync. Check function
