Effect of Unbalance Quantities & Harmonics On Electrical Power System Elements

Course Overview:

• This course provides theoretical and practical knowledge of the issues related to power quality and harmonics. The objective of the course is to familiarize attendees with the terminology and concepts to evaluate the quality of power in an electric power system, and allow them to identify the source of the problem. The effects of harmonics on various power system components and methods of reducing excessive harmonics will also be addressed.

Course Objective:

• Develop a sound working knowledge of earthing and harmonics
• Gain practical knowledge of surge and transient protection
• Design electrical and electronic systems correctly by applying knowledge of harmonics and earthing principles
• Describe applications for the latest technologies in correcting earthing, harmonics, surge, and transient problems
• Troubleshoot electrical and electronic systems
• Isolate and rectify power quality problems
