Power Quality |
Introduction to Power Quality: Problems, Analysis & Solutions: This constantly updated, comprehensive 3-day course is designed specifically for those who must troubleshoot and diagnose power, and facility wiring and grounding problems. In this course you will gain an understanding of the determinants of power quality: geographic location, electrical utility system, facility/utility interface, building wiring system, data and telecommunication networks, and electrical loads. You will learn proven techniques and procedures for rapidly identifying and solving power quality problems. Upon completion you will be able to make an immediate contribution to your facility and possess the understanding and skills necessary to perform power quality surveys. |

Power Quality - Grounding |
Grounding for Equipment Performance / NEC 2005: This 1-day course examines the controversial topic of grounding. Poor grounding practices can cause continual equipment problems in a facility, whereas proper grounding practices can ensure reliable and productive operation. Specialized grounding techniques have evolved to meet the perceived grounding requirements of electronic equipmen, but sometimes they degrade equipment performance and violate the National Electrical Code. Techniques such as single point grounding, multiple point grounding, isolated grounding, and equipotential reference grounding are covered. The course also focuses on changes brought about by the 2005 National Electric Code. |

| Power Quality - Waveforms |
Advanced Waveform Analysis & Case Studies: In this 1-day course you’ll view a variety of real-world waveforms, each illustrating a particular PQ problem with discussion on solving the problem Through numerous case studies, this new course will help you recognize, analyze and resolve common problems. In addition, classroom time will be allocated to analysis of student waveforms. Waveform material must be submitted prior to the class to ensure compatibility (e.g., Dranetz-BMI, Fluke-RPM, and Hioki).

Power Quality -- Education |
Any of PowerCET's knowledge based education or operational skills based training programs are available as in-house classes at the client's facility. An additional advantage to in-house programs is that they afford the opportunity for customization of the material to meet specific objectives and needs that might not be fully met in a public program. Contact PowerCET for a discussion of education and training needs.
