Low Voltage Systems, Design & Testing

06-05-2024 - 10-05-2024 3800 Dubai

 

Course Introduction:

 

This course provides the skills, knowledge, and techniques necessary to become proficient to conduct LV mission critical power system modeling, design, and analysis. The purpose of this course is to develop a thorough understanding of capabilities and analytical techniques to solve a variety of LV system challenges presented in mission critical facilities (e.g. railway signaling power systems, data centers, etc.).

 
An overview of user interface will be covered including system modeling of UPS, transformers, etc., one-line diagram construction, Multi-Dimensional Database, Cable, Electric Shock calculation, Protection and Selectivity, report generation and more. The workshop exercises and tutorials are customized for LV systems.

 

Course Objectives:

 

In this course, participants will learn about network system design, protection and operations. Topics include network relay characteristics and settings, fuse and cable limiter characteristics and coordination, primary system grounding and relaying, application of primary side fuses, overvoltage during capacitive back feed, arcing fault characteristics and protection schemes for 480-volt spot networks, cogeneration and closed transition load transfers on spot networks, and network protector test sets for relay and protector testing.

 

Who Should Attend?

 

This course is intended for Consultants, designers, engineers and electrical contractors who are designing and maintaining low voltage systems. This training is tailored for both new and existing users.
