Objective 2

:

.Represent elements of a power system including generators, transmission lines, and transformers.

Objective 3

:

Construct a composite system by the interconnection of the elements of a power system.

Objective 4

:

Understand the functioning of a synchronous machine and represent it with simple models.

Objective 5

:

Analyze multi-node power systems using an admittance matrix or impedance matrix representation of the power system.

Objective 6
