COURSE OUTLINE

Introduction

Power plant maintenance is performed to maintain power plants which includes the following activities including inspections, maintenance, and repairs for all the assets used throughout a power plant. It is crucial for safety and preserving the longevity of energy plant assets.

It is essential to ensure the safety of personnel at the plant and to keep all of the assets and infrastructure in good working condition.

Objective

To review what are the different types of power plants and how they work
To identify different types of electrical assets in a power plant
To learn maintenance strategies for different electrical assets in a power plant
To create a power plant maintenance plan
To present and discuss the created power plant maintenance plan

Power Quality Analysis and Harmonics

This practical course provides you with methods and procedures used internationally in evaluating obtained data Power Quality Analysis (PQA). This course will equip attendees with the knowledge on different Power Quality Disturbances that affects most sensitive equipment in electrical system and how to mitigate them. Moreover, harmonics mitigation will be an important subject as it creates unwanted energy that distort nominal power requirements of the system. Correct PQA meter installation and evaluation will then also be very essential in gathering needed data for the detection of problems

Now with the engineers having the knowledge in PQA, will formulate a way to deal with these problems to assess and safely maintain electrical systems in their respective fields.

Objectives:

At the end of the program, the participants will be able to:

How, when and where to use a power quality analyzer, know power quality monitoring techniques
Identify different power quality disturbances
Origin and effects of power quality disturbances
Specify solutions to mitigate every power quality disturbances
Knowledge in Harmonics and Noise
Basic design of harmonic filters and specifying the transformer K factor rating

Who Should Attend:

This course will enhance the understanding and increase competencies for:

Electrical Engineers
Engineering department staffs
Test engineers and Technicians
Cadet engineers
Substation, Facility and Maintenance engineers
