As the demand for electrical energy increases and requirements from regulatory agencies for improved reliability, security and efficiency on the operation of electric power systems, the need for professionals ever more qualified on planning and operation power systems also increases. However, with the need for continued technical update and as a result of rationalization policies of costs and provision of personnel for training, the distance learning techniques have evolved and reached different areas of knowledge. This work presents a Simulator for Presence and Distance Learning about Operation and Protection of Electric Systems (STOP). The STOP Simulator is developed in Java, which enables it to be used in the following systems: Unix, Linux, Windows, MacOS. The STOP can be applied in class as well as distance training and is directed to the training of engineering students, technicians and professionals specialized on electric power systems. The STOP is integrated to a Learning Virtual Environment (AVA), the Moodle. The integration enhances the teaching-learning process making it more effective by using a tool able to simulate real life situations. Simulators in virtual environments are an alternative to reducing costs in companies and educational institutions. The STOP is a software tool featuring one-line diagrams with the main components of the protection system, short-circuits simulation and reconfiguration of the system by setting relays for coordination of the system protection and redefinition of parameters.
