This four-day course will cover general and detailed principles used in the coordination and protection of  medium and low voltage power systems.  Although the depth of the material is geared for electrical engineers, many plant electrical technicians have found the material extremely useful in their job. A few additional topics specifically address government criteria impacting engineers providing services to the government.  It is structured to provide  information important to the conduct of a short circuit and protective device coordination study for both low voltage and medium voltage distribution systems.  Materials include tips and techniques not found in other courses or books on the subject.  These tips are guaranteed to save you time and mistakes in your system designs. Unlike other industry courses, It is not training in how to use a specific type of software.  Whether you use EasyPower, EDSA, SKM, or any other software, you will benefit from this course. Eight hours are devoted on the day four to actual practical examples of system design with coordination as the goal Students will make all technical decisions during the practical examples. Actual lab exercises with student participation will compare relay and molded-case breaker performance against published curves.  

[$$] The classes noted with this symbol are coordinated with ESA Inc. and subject to their training dates. Check the ESA Support/Training website for EasyPower® hands-on classes that may be offered the week after these courses. Attendance at these sessions will optimize your training experience. During our course you will learn the fundamentals prior to learning to use the software. This will enhance your learning experience at the EasyPower Regional Hands-On session.

A maximum of 3.0 CEU's will be provided for through the I.E.E.E. Education Program  for those students needing professional continuing education credits. These CEUs will cover all students participating in either the four day basic material or fifth day extended material coverage.

Price:  $1,800.00 (US) (There is a 10% discount available for I.E.E.E. members only. See registration form. )
