The Switchgear and Protection Laboratory is designed to provide hands-on experience and practical insights into the operation, performance, and applications of various switchgear equipment used in modern power systems. Supporting the Switchgear and Protection curriculum, it plays a crucial role in bridging theoretical knowledge with real-world protective systems.
Equipped with industry-grade panels and a wide range of microcontroller-based relay trainers, the lab enables students to understand the principles and behavior of protective relays and fault scenarios.
Additionally, the lab features a Radial Feeder Protection Simulation Panel, donated by 1997 batch alumna Ms. Shikha Gupta. Several SGP-based student projects are also part of the facility.
The lab not only enhances student proficiency in protection schemes but also develops analytical and diagnostic skills essential for successful careers in power systems engineering.
