DIgSILENT PowerFactory Training for Protection Engineers (#620)
Instructor: Dr. Saeed Roostaee & Dr. Sabouhi
Format: Pre-recorded videos with lifetime access
Level: Beginner to Advanced
Master one of the world’s leading power system analysis software packages through practical, engineering-focused training. This course is designed specifically for protection, power system, commissioning, and consulting engineers who want to perform professional power system studies using DIgSILENT PowerFactory.
Rather than focusing only on theory, the course combines step-by-step software demonstrations, practical case studies, protection applications, and engineering best practices that can be directly applied in real projects.
