Highly Reliable Electrical Power for Information Systems

Course No. E-3003

Credit: 3 PDH

Course Fee: $86.85 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Eric Hinrichs, B.S.E.E., M.S.C.

 

Overview

Highly reliable electrical power systems are required to serve critical Information Systems (IS) sites. This course provides an overview of power quality problems, with an emphasis on Information Technology (IT) equipment.

Modern technology's sensitive components present new challenges for plant engineers who design, specify, install, or maintain plants and equipment. SCR and diode rectifiers in computers, copiers, switched mode power supplies, solid-state lighting ballasts, and power conversion sections of adjustable frequency drives increase the need for power systems engineers to thoroughly address harmonic distortion and its role in overall power quality.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of fifteen (15) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Identification of harmonic distortion and other noise sources in information systems
  • Means of designing and specifying the correct K-Factor for transformers
  • Identification of relevant International and U.S. specifications dealing with power quality
  • Actual calculations of the effects of adding additional computers, UPS, and motors to existing IS facilities
