A group of 20 students and six instructors from the Texas State Technical College (TSTC) Mechatronics program in Harlingen visited the nearest switching station to gain firsthand knowledge about their field of study from our AEP Texas Protection & Control (P&C) Department.
During the visit, students received an insider’s look at the critical infrastructure that powers their community. The P&C Department shared valuable insights into SCADA systems and provided details about the operations of a switching station.
AEP Texas is continuously seeking opportunities to educate students about how it ensures power reliability across its service territories.
