Grounding in Electrical Power Distribution Systems

Yogyakarta | 01 – 04 September 2014 | IDR 7.000,000.00 / participant
Yogyakarta | 24 – 27 November 2014 | IDR 7.000,000.00 / participant


 

DESCRIPTION

This seminar is designed for engineers and technologists who are engaged in the design of power distribution system installations. The seminar is based on ANSI/IEEE Standard #80 “IEEE Guide for Safety in AC Substations Grounding”. It builds on the theoretical fundamentals of grounding and provides the participant with the practical knowledge and application to design and test the grounding system to ensure safety for those who work on the system as well as the public. In particular, the tolerable current for the human body and the maximum allowable step, touch and ground potential rise will be explained. Analysis of ground fault currents and how to effectively ground the system components will be discussed



WHO SHOULD ATTEND

Electrical Engineers, Project Engineers, Design Engineers, Plant Engineers or those who have a considerable understanding of electrical grounding and are responsible for the engineering, design, construction, installation, inspection, operation, or maintenance of electrical grounding systems in an industrial, commercial or institutional or utility setting.
