Introduction to PSS®E GIC Module
—
At a glance
Geomagnetic Disturbances (GMDs) occur when solar energetic particles from the sun migrate to the earth and cause short-term variations in the earth’s magnetic field. These variations can eventually lead to Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs) and a potential increase in var losses and harmonic distortion that may lead to voltage stability problems. The objective of the PSSC 800 course is to provide participants with an introduction to the GIC module in PSS®E, the theory of GIC, and the configuration and operation of the module.
Upon completion of this course, participants will have a fundamental understanding of GIC theory and basic knowledge to perform GICstudies using PSS®E.

Training Needs Assessment (TNA)
Siemens Power Academy now offers to help your company assess your training needs. The Training Needs Assessment is conducted via a survey and interviews concluding with a report that indentifies the gaps by business priority along with other useful statistics. The results provided in the report will identify the knowledge gaps that exisit across multiple departments and can be used to create a training program to address those gaps. Not only is conduting a TNA an excellent way to assess your training needs, it can also save a lot of time and money knowing that your company is getting the right training they need to meet your company’s goals.
