Fundamentals of Variable Speed Drives
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Variable Speed Drives is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through electrical safety procedure and transformer maintenance without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because ageing plant is being asked to carry loads it was never specified for, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with lockout and tagout, condition monitoring and electrical fault analysis in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain lockout and tagout to someone who does not do the work, measured against recognised arc flash assessment practice
- Review condition monitoring and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where electrical fault analysis is failing before it becomes a finding
- Put substation operation on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
