Digital Transformation in Variable Speed Drives

Electrical and Power Engineering|3 days|Classroom or live online

This programme examines how the practice is shifting, and what delegates should adopt, adapt or ignore. It works through standby generation and load flow analysis as they stand today and where they are heading. The shift is worth understanding because ageing plant is being asked to carry loads it was never specified for. Delegates leave able to work confidently with substation operation, switchgear maintenance and electrical safety procedure in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Review substation operation and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the SANS wiring code
  • Improve switchgear maintenance within their own organisation
  • Take ownership of electrical safety procedure rather than escalating it
  • Explain insulation testing to someone who does not do the work
