In the context of your work, have you ever asked yourself the following questions?
- What, exactly, is the difference between current, voltage, power and energy?
- How does the power system work?
- How does protection by grounding and overcurrent limitation work?
- What does balance responsibility party stand for?
- How is supply and demand matching done in the power market?
- How is power quality of the network influenced?
- What effects do distributed renewable energy resources have on the grid and the market?
- What is meant by frequency control, power flow, coincidence, etc.?
- What is reactive power and why is it important?
- What are ancillary services, unit commitment and economic dispatch?
