Advanced Quality of Electrical Supply

The rapidly increasing installation of electronic equipment and power electronic devices such as variable speed drives and renewable energy systems has increased both the susceptibility to supply disturbances and the level of disturbances that may impact customer equipment operation. This advanced course is designed to expand the coverage of selected power quality topics in order to give participants practical skills in the analysis and mitigation of specific problems. You'll learn advanced analysis techniques and methods of improving power quality by both network and plant modifications, developing your knowledge and skills through discussion and laboratory sessions. Master the application of AS/NZS 61000.3.6 Technical Report methodologies, symmetrical component theory, sag mitigation assessment, and power quality monitoring and reporting practices.
