Protection theory
Power System Relaying, 5th edition
Use your existing text in module order: foundations, transformer, overcurrent, distance, pilot protection and events. Use Blackburn & Domin for a second explanation.
03 / READ WITH A PURPOSE
Reference desk
Device implementation
GE T60 manuals
For the reported 7.43 platform, match the 7.4x manual to actual hardware and options. Verify source mapping and the manufacturer’s restraint definitions.
OT security baseline
NIST SP 800-82 Rev. 3
Published OT security guidance. Start with architecture, operational constraints and recovery. Distinguish published guidance from draft revisions.
Protection learning
SEL ePROT 401
Optional structured theory from your plan. Substitute it for overlapping study blocks; do not stack it onto the full eight-hour week.
Reliability requirements
NERC protection & control standards
Learn the purpose of PRC-004, PRC-005 and PRC-027. Confirm current versions and facility applicability before using a requirement.
Ontario applicability
IESO enforcement dates
Use jurisdictional enforcement information alongside the relevant standard. A publication date alone does not establish applicability.
Keep the personal lab separate.
Use fictional settings and isolated training systems. Keep employer drawings, configurations and event data in approved systems. Physical relay work follows authorized isolation, testing and restoration procedures; never open an energized CT secondary.
