EMC Design for High-Voltage Substations

Why this seminar matters

The Netherlands is undergoing a major energy infrastructure upgrade, including the construction of new 380 kV substations. To ensure efficient and reliable implementation, standardization is essential. A standardized 380 kV station design, including a coherent EMC approach, helps guarantee proper functionality and simplifies compliance for contractors and suppliers.

What you will learn

In this seminar, you’ll explore the standard EMC design principles for high-voltage substations. Expert speakers Michel Dagelinckx and Theo Gerritzen will cover:

• The importance of EMC in high-voltage substations
• Zoning, cable separation, and cable entry strategies
• Earthing systems inside and outside the central control building
• Use of a Parallel Earth Conductor (PEC)
• Topics of emission, immunity, and attenuation
• The link between the EMC concept and the condition score EMC
• Corrosion resistance is an important consideration in relation to the construction requirements set out in the relevant standards. In addition to the requirements of standards NEN 1010:2020+C1:2024 and NEN-EN-IEC 61439-1:2021, reference is increasingly being made to the requirements of the NEN-EN-ISO 12944 series.

Who should attend?

Ideal for professionals involved in the construction, design, or engineering of high-voltage substations with EMC concerns, including:

• Engineers & designers
• Installation managers
• Project leads & consultants
• Suppliers & contractors

Whether you’re experienced in EMC or seeking to deepen your knowledge, this seminar offers valuable insights and practical tools
