A Systematic Approach to Electrical Power System Design

Course Purpose

Industrial Electrical Power Systems need a good design. A proper functioning electric power distribution system is vital to safety, maintenance, troubleshooting and the efficient operation of a modern industrial plant.

The power distribution system includes high voltage utility tie circuit breakers, main transformers, medium voltage switchgear, distribution transformers, motor control centers, electric motors, variable speed drives, etc. This course is designed to address all aspects of industrial power distribution systems, including system planning, equipment selection, specification and application, system grounding, protection, and conformity with electrical code requirements, etc. Typical one-line and relaying diagrams will be discussed for various applications.

Objectives

Learn industrial power systems design principals, planning and analysis.

This course is designed for electrical power engineers to review, reinforce, and refresh their knowledge of power system design, operation, and troubleshooting.

The course will provide a systematic approach to design of a new Electrical Power System or retrofit an obsolete system, encompassing distribution, transformers, MCC, panel boards, lighting loads and manufacturing plant electrical system.

Advance your knowledge and skills in system planning, equipment selection, specification, and application. Learn and understand important aspects of power distribution system design steps. Improve your knowledge of how to operate your industrial power system efficiently, securely and safely.
