Electrical Products Expo Courses

2016 Electrical Products Expo

CEU Course Selection:

EATON

Electrical and Arc-Flash Safety training, 4 hours = .4 CEU

Each new edition of the NFPA Standard 70E contains revised recommendations for protecting workers from the hazards of arc flash. IEEE 1584 sets the industry standard for evaluating the hazards in a power distribution system and its equipment. 29CFR1910 subparts R and S tie these standards and governmental regulations for electrical safety together. The Electrical and Arc-Flash Safety training program from Eaton provides electricians, technicians, maintenance managers, safety managers and engineers with the information they need to follow the standard industry practices of government and industry.

Program content
• Electrical hazards
• Preparing to work safely
• Using live line tools and voltage detectors
• Lockout/tagout
• Temporary grounding
• Flash protection boundary and limits of approach (NFPA 70E)
• Methods for selecting protective clothing and personal protective equipment
• Practical methods for reducing arc-flash hazard

Strategies for Solving Power Quality Issues in Electrical Distributions Systems, 4 hours = .4 CEU

This course covers strategies for solving power quality issues in electrical distribution including: What is Power Quality, the 9 power problems, power quality concepts, power quality monitoring, equipment grounding, voltage variations, surge transients and harmonics.

Seminar Selection (Non CEU):

Medium Voltage Drives - Synchronous Drive Applications

This presentation will review the Eaton SC9000 EP synchronous transfer:  Integrated PLC Controls and customer interface, sequence of operation, waveforms captured during motor load transition, limitations of open transition and typical system configurations.

Power Factor Correction and Surge Protection

Surge protection & NEC 700.8 the liability of non-compliance. Reviews power factor correction and how to eliminate the hidden surcharges.

Power Management - How to select metering appropriate for the application.

Covers different metering objectives, and what is the best meter to use to satisfy those objectives.  Includes discussion on requirements for specific applications involving meterology, communications, and typical electrical equipment used in conjunction with metering.  Live demos of meter selection tools, metering interfaces, and metering devices will also be presented.

Low Voltage Drives - Harmonic Mitigating Design Considerations

UPS Critical Power - Design considerations for single and three phase applications

Topics of discussion for this course are:  Uninterruptible power system topology choices when selecting the optimum UPS for a wide range of applications and ways to increase redundancy and efficiency of UPS systems for critical power applications.

LED Lighting for Industrial Plant Environment

Why LED and why Crouse-Hinds?  The course will overview the benefits of LED.  It will also cover LED product overview and new product development.

Surge Protection for Medium Voltage Circuits

Proper arrester protection is vital to protect medium voltage equipment such as transformers and pad mount switchgear from damaging surges typically caused by lightning.  Characteristics of lightning will be discussed. By understanding lightning, selection of the proper arrester to mitigate damage to equipment resulting from lightning becomes understandable and simpler for the user.

Overcurrent Protection for Medium Voltage Products

Discussion covers methods to protect pad mounted transformers and pad mounted switchgear for overload and internal faults using fuses.  This course also covers other available over-current protection methods besides the fuse.
