Power System Testing Commissioning & Start Up of Electrical Projects 26 – 30 October, 2008 – Abu Dhabi Course Objectives Supply tariffs to industrial consumers almost always penalize low power factor loads. It is much more practical and economical to size the power system according to the maximum demand for real power, and to manage the reactive power by means of compensators and other equipment that can be deployed more flexible than generating units and which make no contribution to fault levels. Many utilities need this particular course, which cover the illustration of main concepts of reactive power management using actual case studies. On completion of this course participants will be able to: • To understand main concepts of management of reactive power. • To discuss how to improve the quality of supply in A.C. Power System. • To discuss how to use the generators, distribution networks, and equipment at full efficiency. • To know how to select, calculate, connect the reactive power compensator to improve the power factor, the voltage regulation and the load balancing in the utilities and industrial networks. • To know the problems appear due to use compensation equipment and how to mitigate those problems.
Who Should Attend This course is intended for Junior & Senior Electrical Engineers, who work in operation, planning, maintenance, protection, control and analysis of Utilities & Industrial Electrical Networks.
Course Contents The course will cover the following topics: • • • • •
