Course Description:

In today’s rapidly evolving energy landscape, effective grid management and protection through Power Quality (PQ) monitoring have become indispensable. The growing demands for electricity, driven by increased industrialization and automation, combined with the ongoing energy transition and the surging adoption of renewable energy sources, present unprecedented challenges and opportunities in power quality management. To harness the full technical benefits of these transformations, the meter manufacturing industry has responded with the development of specialized PQ instruments (PQI).

This comprehensive training course provides insights and expertise in the field of power quality monitoring and grid protection. Participants will delve into standardized methodologies outlined in IEC 61000-4-30, enabling them to make direct performance comparisons across different PQ analyzers. The course will also offer a detailed overview of the functionality aspects, conformity requirements, and evaluation methods specified in IEC 62586-1 and IEC 62586-2.

Who should attend?

This course is tailored for a wide range of professionals, including PQI manufacturers, grid operators, research and development engineers, test engineers, quality engineers, certification managers, and engineers involved in the power quality domain.

Objective

By the end of this training, participants will gain a understanding of the following key areas:

• Power Quality Fundamentals: Explore the essential aspects of power quality, providing a solid foundation for effective grid management and protection.
• PQ Measurement Methodologies: Dive into the standardized PQ measurement methodologies outlined in IEC 61000-4-30, equipping participants with the knowledge to employ these methods effectively.
• PQI Classification and Functionality: Understand the classification and functionality requirements specified in IEC 62586-1, enabling participants to assess and select PQ instruments that meet their specific needs.
• PQI Testing and Evaluation: Master the testing and evaluation methods detailed in IEC 62586-2, ensuring participants can confidently assess the performance of PQ instruments in real-world applications.
