You save 20% when you enroll for the series.

After Participating in this course, you will be able to:

Recognize Per Unit Values
Understand the Advantages of using Per-Unit Values
Derive the Base Quantities of a System
Define the Basic Steps to the Per Unit Conversion Process
Work Out Practical Single and Three Phase Examples

Description:
This course is designed to provide a basic understanding of Per Unit System used in the calculations and analysis of single and three phase power circuits. It will provide the student with the background knowledge on which the modern day computer software programs are based.

It will include working examples of practical situations and the way manufacturers use per unit and percent impedances when describing the ratings of their products.

Course Outline:

Defining Per Unit Values
Defining the Base Quantities
Converting to/from Per Unit Values
Per Unit Values in a Three Phase System
Understanding Transformer Ratios in the Per Unit System
Understanding “Y” and “Delta” Loads in the Per Unit System
Working Single and Three Phase Examples
“Base” Conversion
The Per-Unit System Advantages

Who Should Attend:
Those looking to work in the protection and control area of power systems and wish to have a more comprehensive understanding of the basic workings of this area.
