Overview

This magnificent 51-hour course will help you have a kick start in power electronics including rectifiers, AC choppers, DC choppers, and inverters. In addition to the basics of electrical protection, we will also cover topics such as overcurrent protection, differential protection, distance protection, circuit breakers, and fuses.

Throughout the Power Electronics course, you will learn:

  • The applications of power electronics and the definition of a power electronic circuit.
  • Different types of switches such as diodes, thyristors, GTO, BJT, IGBT, Mosfet, etc.
  • The different AC/DC converters (rectifiers) such as half-wave and full-wave rectifier single-phase circuits in uncontrolled, half, and fully controlled bridges. In addition to the different three-phase rectifier circuits.
  • AC chopper circuits or AC/AC converters in the case of R load, L load, RL parallel, RL series load, and capacitive loads. In addition to the integral cycle control of an AC chopper.
  • DC choppers or DC/DC converters such as the step-down DC chopper with R and R-L-E load, and the step-up DC chopper with R, RL, and RE loads. Moreover, we will also learn about the buck, boost, and buck-boost regulator circuits.
  • Inverter or DC/AC converters including single-phase half-bridge R-load, single-phase half-bridge RL-load, single-phase bridge inverter R-load, single-phase bridge inverter RL-load, and the three-phase inverters. Furthermore, we will also look at the single, multiple, and sinusoidal pulse width modulation.
