Prevent power quality problems, recognize distortions at an early stage!

Basic and special seminars in power quality

The electrical power supply is one of the most important parts of a company. For this to be reliable, regular inspections and the early detection of possible disturbances are required. It is a good thing if your own employees already have an expert knowledge and a trained eye. This enables network problems to be recognized in a early stage and minimizes operating disturbances or production stops. Last but not least, an optimized power quality also saves investment costs and energy.

Our approach: (electrical engineer + training) × Network problem = 0 Operation Disturbances

Trained personnel pays off: The simple comparison of production costs and training costs always shows a positive result. The most important requirement for this is, that the skilled electrician in your company knows possible causes of faults and recognizes their signs early.

In addition to early detection, the provided expertise supports the cooperation with power quality experts and manufacturers as well as the assessment of power quality data, simulations and solutions to improve the power quality. As a result, cost-optimized solutions are carefully dimensioned and monitored to ensure safe operation.

Examples of Basic Trainings

PQ-Basic (duration: 4 hours)

Our basic training provides valuable knowledge, which gives the trained people an overview of the subject and raises their attention for possible power quality problems and related effects.
  

Power Quality in theory and practice briefly explained:

  • Origin and significance of the power quality parameters
  • Overview of power quality standards
  • Power quality measurements and their interpretation

Causes, effects and solutions from practice:

  • Typical sources of harmonics
  • Voltage dips and Flicker
  • Transients, resonances and overvoltage
  • And in each case effects and solutions

The participants in the seminar can present their own problems with discussion afterwards.

Extended (Duration: 8 hours)

The basic seminar can be extended to a complete training day with the following topics.
  

Correct handling of the power quality analyzers and evaluation of the measured values:

  • Selection of measuring instruments
  • Safety when doing measurements
  • Parameterization of the measuring instruments
  • Evaluation and automation
  • Setting up useful limits
 

Planning and simulation:

  • Evaluation of power consumers using the technical rules for the assessment of power quality effects D-A-CH-CZ
  • Correct evaluation of measurements and preparation for the planning
  • Simulation of grids (meaningful reduction and approach as well as result evaluation)

In addition, the seminar can be supplemented by practical examples in your company.
