The Cooper Power Systems three-day Distribution Overcurrent Protection Workshop will provide participants with a hands-on learning experience in applying overcurrent protection schemes. Curriculum has been developed for engineers involved with the design and/or operation of overcurrent protection for utilities or industrial applications. The workshop will focus on overall system coordination rules and daily procedures, including:

• Fuse-to-fuse expulsion and current-limiting coordination
• Transformer protection
• Protection with sectionalizers
• Recloser and source-side coordination
• Recloser and load-side coordination
• Electronically and hydraulically controlled recloser coordination

 Accreditation: 2.1 CEU or 21 PDHs

The Cooper Power Systems three-day Capacitors Workshop is intended for engineers engaged in the application and specification of MV and HV power capacitors for electric power systems, and covers key application topics:

• Capacitor system benefits
• Capacitor unit design and testing
• Distribution capacitor application, fusing, switching, and capacitor controls
• Substation capacitor banks – types, design factors, and protection
• Capacitor overcurrent protection – fusing and relays
• Overvoltage protection – arrester selection, unbalance protection
• Capacitor switching and breaker selection
• Maintenance considerations
• Harmonics – capacitor application considerations, harmonic sources, harmonic filter types and designs
• Capacitor applications – in-series capacitor banks, HVDC and SVC
  
  

Recommended for: Utility engineers, industrial/institutional electrical engineers, consulting engineers
