Course image EPE3262 Transmission and Distribution
Semester II

The aim of this module is to acquaint students with the various transmission and distribution processes employed in electrical power systems. Use the study to enhance the realization that electrical power systems are large systems, which integrate other branches of science and engineering like mechanical, chemical, civil, control systems. Also that, the understanding of each of these component parts makes for the smooth, efficient, and reliable operations of any power system.

Course image EPE3264 Power Electronics
Semester II


Welcome to this module of Power Electronics. This module aims to equip the student with a basic understanding of modern power semiconductor devices. It is also intended for students who may want to work in environments where all aspects of the design, application and maintenance of power electronic converter circuits are envisaged. The course will familiarize students with the many diverse power semiconductor devices and their ancillary control circuits at both low and high power levels and prepare them with the requisite design and performance analysis skills for some of these circuits.
