I have conducted a workshop for postgraduate students and lecturers on how to use Matlab and Simulink software to model and simulate power systems. I hope the knowledge shared will be beneficial to everyone.

INDUSTRIAL VISIT TO PERLIS POWER PLANT
On December 20, 2023, I and my students studying Power System Protection & Switchgear visited the Perlis Power Plant for an industrial tour. The aim was to give students hands-on exposure to a crucial element of the power system—the power plant. Initially, we received a comprehensive briefing on the power plant's operations, covering organizational structures, company management, operational systems, and power generation control. This particular plant employs a combined cycle system, relying on natural gas as its primary fuel source for generating electricity. Within this setup, there exist two main turbines: the primary turbine, fueled by burning natural gas, and the secondary turbine, activated by steam derived from the primary turbine's combustion heat. Following the briefing, participants had the opportunity to witness various parts of the power plant installation, including the turbine room, step-up transformers, grid connections, water storage facilities, and the power generation control room (SCADA).
Industrial Visit to HVDC Converter Station, Gurun, Kedah
HVDC Converter Station, Gurun, Kedah is a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) electrical power conversion station located in the Malaysian state of Kedah. It converts alternating current (AC) electricity generated by power plants into direct current (DC) electricity for long-distance transmission, and vice versa. HVDC technology is used to transmit large amounts of electrical power over long distances with minimal power loss.
This converter station is located in Gurun, Kedah and is connected to converter station at Khlong Ngae, Thailand through 300 kV DC transmission line. This HVDC grid connection increase the power system stability and security for the grid at North region of Peninsular Malaysia by connecting the grid of both countries.

Attended PECON 2018
Assalamualaikum..
I had presented a paper at IEEE International Conference on Power and Energy (PECON 2018) which was held at Kuala Lumpur from 3-4th December 2018.
My paper titled "Wide-Area Fault Location for Power Transmission Network using Reactance Based Method". Hopefully, I could send a paper for 2019 at the same conference.
Attended ICEESE 2018
Assalamualaikum..
I had presented a paper at 4th International Conference on Electrical, Electronics and System Engineering (ICEESE 2018) which was held at Kuala Lumpur from 8-9th November 2018.
My paper titled "Auto-Reclose Relay Simulation for Research & Education". Hopefully, I could send a paper for 2019.
Manuscripts Accepted for Conference
Alhamdulillah..
Both of my manuscripts been accepted to be presented at different conferences and both will be published in IEEEXplore database.
Fault Resistance of the Fault Arc
Source: Jianping Wang, ABB, 2013-06-14 KTH
Arc which developed at the transmission line during fault occurrence can be due to an object very near to the line or due to lightning which make the fault current to jump to the transmission tower (earth). This arc representing an equivalent value of fault resistance, Rf. This Rf value is depends on the arc length and fault current. The longer the arc length, the higher the Rf while the higher the fault current the lower the fault resistance as shown by the equation in the figure above.
The value of Rf can affects the accuracy of fault locating device and also the protection relay which uses the impedance based method (such as distance relay). For impedance based method relay, Rf can affects the accuracy of the relay in determining the tripping signal decision especially for fault near to the setting of zone reach.
