COURSE OVERVIEW:

In the modern industrial landscape, the "Quality" of power is as critical as its "Availability." This course provides a comprehensive technical exploration of "Power Quality" (PQ) and "Security of Supply," focusing on the identification and mitigation of disturbances that impact sensitive equipment and grid stability. Participants will explore the mechanics of "Voltage Fluctuations," learning how to differentiate between sags, swells, transients, and harmonics that can lead to equipment failure and economic loss.

The scope of this training addresses the dual challenge of maintaining "System Security" while ensuring high PQ standards for consumers. It covers the technical nuances of "Reliability Indices" (SAIDI, SAIFI), focusing on the strategies required to minimize the frequency and duration of outages. The curriculum provides a detailed focus on "Mitigation Technologies," ensuring that participants can design and implement solutions such as "Active Filters," "Static VAR Compensators" (SVC), and "Uninterruptible Power Supplies" (UPS) to harden the grid.

Coverage includes the implementation of international standards like IEEE 519 and IEC 61000 for harmonic compliance and voltage stability. Attendees will learn to utilize "Power Quality Analyzers" to conduct audits, analyze "Root Causes" of supply disruptions, and develop "Business Continuity" plans for critical infrastructure. By combining power engineering with reliability mathematics, the course equips professionals with the expertise required to deliver a secure, clean, and continuous electrical supply to modern loads.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

After completion of this course, the participants will be able to:

• Define the parameters of "Power Quality" (Voltage, Frequency, Waveform).
• Identify the sources and effects of "Harmonics" in electrical networks.
• Calculate "Reliability Indices" (SAIDI, SAIFI, CAIDI, ASAI).
• Analyze "Voltage Sags and Swells" and their impact on industrial loads.
• Interpret the "CBEMA / ITIC" curve for equipment sensitivity.
• Design "Harmonic Mitigation" using passive and active filters.
• Evaluate the role of "Reactive Power Control" in voltage stability.
• Conduct a "Power Quality Audit" using advanced logging instruments.
• Explain "Security of Supply" concepts.
• Implement "UPS" and "Energy Storage" for critical load protection.
• Analyze "Frequency Stability" and the impact of renewable integration.
• Interpret international standards (IEEE 519, IEC 61000, EN 50160).

TARGET AUDIENCE:

This course is intended for Power System Planners, Grid Operations Engineers, Power Quality Specialists, and Industrial Facility Managers.

TRAINING COURSE METHODOLOGY:

A highly interactive combination of lectures, discussion sessions, and case studies will be employed to maximize the transfer of information, knowledge, and experience. The course will be intensive, practical, and highly interactive. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions and motivating everybody to find the right answers. The attendants will also be encouraged to raise more of their questions and to share in developing the right answers using their analysis and experience. There will also be some indoor experiential activities to enhance the learning experience. Course material will be provided in PowerPoint, with necessary animations, learning videos, and general discussions.

The course participants shall be evaluated before, during, and at the end of the course.

COURSE CERTIFICATE:

National Consultant Centre for Training LLC (NCC) will issue an Attendance Certificate to all participants completing a minimum of 80% of the total attendance time requirement.
