Nearly all electrical devices have power supplies that may cause a disturbance to the current sine wave of a power source. Most published surveys show that 65-85% of the power quality problems are the result of something happening within the facility, on the customer side of the point of common coupling. It may be the wiring or the loads themselves that make the supplied voltage incompatible with equipment within the facility. The result is that the process is interrupted, productivity is halted, and dollars are lost. The ability to properly identify and treat power quality and harmonics problems is important for system reliability and efficiency.

Learning Objectives
• Power quality definitions and standards

• Mitigation techniques

Who Should Attend
Designed for electricians, technicians and maintenance personnel that are responsible for the identification and correction of power quality and harmonics problems in commercial and industrial environments.

Requirements
Requires basic electrical, wiring and math skills. Bring a scientific calculator.
