Planned Norwegian training courses for protection and control systems
Do you want to stand out from the crowd with the latest knowledge in world-leading protection technology?
We offer you training on the tools that can help you find smart solutions for today's rapidly changing electric power systems. This includes training in DIGSI 5, protection principle and SICAM Device Manager, which gives you the ability to effectively manage and monitor devices in your power system.
I am very pleased with the course. The course instructor was skilled and committed, and the teaching material was well structured and relevant. I feel that I have gained a lot from the course and would definitely recommend it to others."
Today's electric power systems place high demands on both the equipment and those who handle it. Power can come from both the ever-growing distributed production and the classic power producers.
The availability of electricity can therefore vary greatly, which increases the need for flexible and smart solutions. These solutions must be able to measure, present, communicate and interact with other parts of the grid to ensure a reliable power supply.
With knowledge of hardware engineering, software engineering based on SICAM Device Manager, basic introduction to DIGSI 5, and protection principle with the help of SIPROTEC 5, there is every opportunity to solve both today's and tomorrow's needs for smart, interconnected and interoperable systems in the electric power supply.
With this basic knowledge of protection and their communication options, we want to offer you the best start to be able to carry out everything from ordinary protection projects to more advanced and project-specific solutions. The application possibilities are many thanks to the flexibility that both SIPROTEC 5, DIGSI 5 and SIPROTEC DigitalTwin as software can offer.
Course in diagram engineering
The course provides a basic introduction to diagram technique and is arranged over three days. Two of the days are set aside for theory, while day three is based on practical implementation of the theory part.
Agenda:
Date: 21-23 October and 11-13 November 2025
Course location: Trondheim
Price: 16 500 kr.
Basic course in DIGSI 5
DIGSI 5 is a PC-based software package for parameterization, commissioning and operation of SIPROTEC 5. The software package allows for a simple and clear graphical user interface that will simplify the work with this type of equipment. The course is therefore suitable for anyone who is, or will be, involved in the planning, commissioning and/or maintenance of SIPROTEC 5.
Agenda:
Date: 14-15 October 2025 Course location: Trondheim Price: NOK 15,500
Course i SICAM Device Manager
SICAM 8 is the overall name of the energy automation platform developed by Siemens. The platform encompasses a variety of products and applications. The best known is the RTU series A8000, which is widely used as a gateway/RTU in the power supply, but recently SICAM 8 has been expanded with SICAM EGS, SICAM 8 SWS (Software Solution) and SICAM HMI, among others. The SICAM A8000 is a hardware platform in the SICAM 8 portfolio. In the A8000 series, there are four main modules, several communication modules, and a variety of I/O modules that have a wide range of applications. The A8000 uses a closed RTOS (Real-time Operating System) based on the Linux kernel. The A8000 series comes complete with the "S8000" application installed, which is the SICAM 8 platform's RTU and PLC functionality. SICAM 8 SWS consists of the SICAM 8 Core basic system and the SICAM S8000 application for RTU and PLC functionality. The S8000 application is the same software found in the RTU series of SICAM A8000. The difference between these two products is only the hardware and the operating system. SICAM 8 SWS is designed to run on an industrial PC or any hardware with a Linux distribution installed. This course will go through the setup of SICAM S8000 with the engineering software SICAM Device Manager. The starting point will be the setup of SICAM 8 SWS and SICAM A8000. Date: 4-5 November 2025 Course location: Trondheim
Price: 15 500 kr.
Protection principle in transmission and distribution grids
The course provides a basic introduction to traditional Agenda within the protection principle and is just as suitable as a repetition for experienced relay protection technicians as an introduction for new relay protection technicians. The course is theoretically structured throughout.
Agenda:
Protection principle in transmission and distribution grids
Ground fault treatment in transmission and distribution grids
Dimensioning of current transformers
Overcurrent protection
Distance protection
Conduction differential protection
busbar protection
Date: 25-26 November 2025 Course location: Trondheim
Price: 15 500 kr.
