Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years (1.8.2018-31.7.2020), which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to:
1. recall the different fields of high voltage engineering,
2. inspect the behavior of different insulators in electric fields and describe their related breakdown processes,
3. identify different high voltage equipment, apply measuring and testing techniques, as well as examine how different voltage stresses affect insulators and systems,
4. collect and construct the necessary tools to continue research in the field of high voltage engineering.
