This is my fist experience at Faraday Training Centre and it was a great experience. I attended the P1 course with instructor Chris. There was five of us in the class which doesn't feel overcrowded and we all had time to ask questions. The instructor Chris is very experienced and knowledgeable in Protection. He listened to our questions and provide good answers. Even when we didn't get it he'll put it a different way. The practical elements on the course is good with lots of practice setting up the relays. Also, there's a fault finding element that proved to be very good. Will definitely recommend.
There could be some more difficult switching schedules from SLD's for practice
The course was not what I thought it would be, I was hoping for more in depth look into more advanced protection systems (transformer diff distance protection etc.) but was only read information from a PowerPoint for a few hours and gave an exam on it. The rest of the week we were given a very repetitive task and a guide to follow. There where countless mistakes on the test schedule given and when we told the lecturer about these issues he didn’t seem too bothered and where told to just continue as it says.
Alan was very knowledgeable and the course was really well laid out, would be nice to learn more about distance protection and how to change the logic to program the relays but overall was a great course.
Chris Harbin was a brilliant instructor and the facility is great with the set up of the switchgear for instructions.
