Fundamentals of Harmonics Seminar April 26, 2019

Fundamentals of Harmonics Seminar – 4 Credit Hours

Power Quality Seminars Approved by the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services DSPS Course ID # 17383

Fundamentals of Harmonics Seminar

Cedarburg, WI

Please join us for the Fundamentals of Harmonics Seminar. This is a four-hour seminar approved by the State of Wisconsin for credit hours.  This seminar teaches the fundamentals of harmonics, including harmonic distortion and its causes, problems associated with harmonics and practical limits for harmonic distortion. The seminar discusses the methods to identify, reduce and to avoid harmonics problems.

Upon completion of this course, participants should have a meaningful understanding of harmonic voltage and current distortion, along with, the impact that harmonics can have on electric power systems.   Comprehension of the causes of harmonics as well as the methods to avoid or minimize harmonics.

Outline of the Seminar:

This course applies to electrical industry professionals serving either industrial or

commercial environments.

This course applies to electrical industry professionals serving either industrial or commercial environments. For maximum benefit of this course, participants should have an understanding of basic electrical principles such as Ohms law, power, electrical metering, motors, and general electrical equipment and systems and a working knowledge of basic algebra.
