Harmonics Seminar PQ-(103) DSPS # 14899 - 8 Credit Hours

For Electrical Professionals

From Introduction to Best Practices, this comprehensive course is perfect for any electrical professional dealing with electrical systems that may have harmonics or want to prevent harmonics.

This eight hour seminar explains harmonic distortion and its causes, identifies problems associated with harmonics and practical limits for harmonic distortion. The seminar teaches methods to identify, reduce and to avoid harmonics problems and how to predict estimated levels of harmonic distortion.

Several real life examples are worked as a group to demonstrate the techniques used to perform basic harmonic analysis, evaluate alternative equipment and to quantify the expected results.
Upon completion of this course, participants should have a meaningful understanding of harmonic voltage and current distortion, the impact that harmonics can have on electric power systems, the typical causes, simple methods to analyze harmonic distortion and methods to minimize harmonics.

This course is applicable to electrical industry professionals serving either industrial or commercial environments. For maximum benefit of this course, participants should have an understanding of basic electrical principles such as Ohms law, power, electrical metering, motors and general electrical equipment and systems and a working knowledge of basic algebra.
