PSCAD Training

PSCAD training is a comprehensive training on PSCAD software. In this course, you'll learn about PSCAD software and it's application. PSCAD course will enhance your knowledge of how to use it and its features from the scratch! Our PSCAD training will help you enhance your knowledge of both the software and the theoretical concepts behind the studies like Insulation coordination, Modelling of a renewable system like a wind turbine, Protection studies like differential, distance and much more.

This PSCAD online training will a 60 hours of training covering how to use the software and concepts, and another 40 hours of hands-on training by doing a real-time project.
