Intermediate level
Transformers are major components of electrical power systems. This 5 Day course combines theoretical and practical aspects of transformer design, operation, maintenance and troubleshooting. The course emphasizes the importance of the magnetic properties of the core design on the transformer’s operational performance and electrical properties. It addresses economic trade-offs of transformers in real-world applications.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
By participating in this course, you will be able to:
Apply transformer operating principles
Gain knowledge of practical solutions for specifying, operating and maintaining power transformers in a utility or plant environment
Avoid costly errors from specifying the wrong transformer for your application
Examine the possibilities of maximizing efficiency and economical performance of your transformer fleet
Determine transformer specifications to suit various applications
TARGET AUDIENCE
Oil and Gas Engineers
Reliability Engineers
Electrical engineering professionals who need to update their knowledge
Distribution System Planners
Maintenance Managers
Power System Consultants
Participants should have a basic understanding of power system operations, but do not necessarily have to be experts
Engineers who are starting their career in the field of power in utilities, industrial or commercial plants and consultants will benefit from this course.
TRAINER
Your Expert Course Instructor is a professional engineer with extensive experience in power system studies, substation design field-testing, and EHS programs settings for Mining and Electrical Utilities sectors. He was formally the Engineering Manager at GE Canada in Ontario. He received his M.Sc. in electrical engineering from the University of New Brunswick and his MBA from Laurier School of Business in Waterloo. He has managed and executed more than 150 engineering projects on substation design EMF audits and power system studies and analyses, EMF audits and grounding audits, for major electrical utilities, mines, oil and gas, data centers, industrial and commercial facilities in Canada and the U.S. He is a certified professional engineer in the provinces of Ontario and Alberta.
He has various IEEE publications, has served as a technical reviewer for many IEEE journals in power systems and control systems, and is the chair of the Industry Application Chapter (IAS) for IEEE Toronto Section. He remains a very active member for the IEEE substation committee of IEEE Std. 81 ground testing (WGE6) and IEEE Std. 80 ground design (WGD7). A certified electrical safety trainer by GE Corporate and a Canadian Standard Association (CSA) committee member at the mining advisory panel for electrical safety, He also taught many technical courses all over Canada to industrial customers, electrical consultants as well as to electrical utilities customers.
