Abstract :
The present paper addresses an advanced teaching lab consisting of setting up an islanded production unit. This teaching lab takes place in the very last semester at master level for students in electrical engineering with energy specialization. The purpose of this teaching lab is to combine knowledge learned in different areas such as power electronics, control, electrical machines and networks, and make use of all of them in practice. The present paper describes in detail the different steps followed by the student to set up an islanded production unit.
