A One Day Seminar Course Description: This seminar is designed for electrical and facility engineers and electrical supervisory personnel who have responsibility for the design, construction or operation of electrical facilities that have large computer, telephone switch or automation system loads. Topics include power quality concepts and definitions, power, and grounding of distribution systems, sources and effects of interference and harmonic line currents, surges, lightning and fault currents. Also included are monitoring systems for power quality, harmonics and load management. Course Objective: To provide state-of-the-art power quality relevant theory, and measurement techniques for power systems design and monitoring for computer rooms, work stations, networks, telephone switches and office automation Application of course materials will result in lower risk designs and installed costs of computer room and office automation power distribution systems. Who Should Attend: Licensed consulting engineers who are associated with the design of power systems design and monitoring for computer rooms, work stations, networks, telephone switches and office automation. Facility engineers responsible for the maintenance of power systems and monitoring for computer rooms, work stations, networks, telephone switches and office automation. Engineers designing high performance UPS and power system components. Computer system, telephone system and office automation power and packaging engineers responsible for power supply, low interference and EMI design, back-up and high availability on-line system performance Course Topics: A summary of power quality concepts and definitions, grounding and distribution principles, sources and effects of power line harmonics due to computer loads, sizing of computer and office automation power systems , electromagnetic interference, surges and faults. Details of power quality definitions, categories of power quality according to Kay and CBEMA and how they relate to on-line performance, feeder configurations vs. their power quality. Safety code implications for harmonic line currents. Three phase power principles, introduction to harmonic generation in power supplies, Wye and Delta connections for line harmonic suppression, power factor definitions, power factor in the presence of line current and voltage harmonics. Computer room layout and transformer selection, phase neutral sizing and grounding practice. Power related specifications for equipment. Power line harmonic requirements for the European market, IEC-555 requirements, surge, sag and power susceptibility, IEEE-587. Power, voltage, current and harmonic monitoring of power systems and monitoring of computer rooms, work stations, networks, telephone switches and office automation. Topics will cover on-line monitoring. proper installation of monitoring equipment, and examples of automated monitoring of voltage, current, demand, real and reactive power and power factor.
