Are you dealing with semiconductor based electronic equipment & non-linear loads (such as computers & their peripherals, data servers, adjustable speed drivers, arc furnaces etc.)? Sometimes the equipment installed at the premises of an electricity user can inject disturbances (e.g. harmonic or inter-harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuations etc.) into the distribution networks.
This highly beneficial training course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of power system harmonics analysis, mitigation and solution strategies. It covers the harmonics and power quality (PQ) and demand for clear power; the harmonic distortion sources in industrial power systems and voltage disturbances; the harmonics effects, common symptoms and the negative consequences; the equipment grounding and power quality; and the resilience, reliability and redundancy. During this interactive training course, participants will learn the solution strategy for harmonics and power quality (PQ); the power filter topologies, harmonic reduction, mitigation and attenuation options; the general passive and active filter design procedures; the harmonics and power quality assessment, measurements and standards; the usage of corrective actions and design solutions; the reactive energy compensation; the investment analysis for PQ solutions; and the tips, application considerations and design examples.
By the end of this ETC training course, you will be able to:
- Apply and gain an in-depth knowledge on power system harmonics analysis including harmonics sources, impacts, measurements, mitigation and solution strategies
- Identify the harmonic distortion sources in industrial power systems and explain voltage disturbances
- Develop solution strategy for harmonics and power quality
