Variable Speed Drives in the Public Sector
Electrical and Power Engineering|3 days|Classroom or live online
Variable Speed Drives in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including arc flash assessment, transformer maintenance and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because ageing plant is being asked to carry loads it was never specified for, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with cable fault location, circuit breaker operation and electrical safety procedure in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review cable fault location and say plainly whether it is working, measured against IEC standards
- Put circuit breaker operation on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Spot where electrical safety procedure is failing before it becomes a finding
- Bring protection relays into line with current good practice
