Development and Expansion of Comprehensive Electrical Energy I for Postgraduate Students

Abstract

In order to understand a weak point of electrical insulation of power apparatus for post graduate students, we developed an integrated class which consists of a high voltage seminar, high voltage testing, presentation and keynote lecture by a visiting lecturer. In 2009, as our institute increased coursework period from 10 weeks to 15 weeks, we added an electrical field analysis to this integrated class to increase further the depth of understanding of the weak point of electrical insulation. After the class was finished, we investigated a degree of satisfaction of this class. As the results, we found that the electrical field analysis is effective for further increase of the depth of understanding of the weak point of electrical insulation. This paper describes the detail of this integrated class.
