Introduction to Power Quality

Companies and institutions regularly run into inexplicable problems in their electrical installation: electrical equipment failures, flickering lights and burning cables, sometimes even resulting in fires. Often, the cause of this is polluted electrical current or voltage. In our training ‘Introduction to Power Quality’ we give – in the most non-technical terms possible - an initial insight into what Power Quality is.

Based on our many years of specialist knowledge and experience, we inform you about the causes, risks and cost of poor Power Quality during this training course. We also explain the possible - visible and invisible - consequences of poor Power Quality and the solutions we offer to optimize the quality of voltage and current.

This training is suitable for buyers, facility managers, service engineers, business owners and for all other people for whom an optimal quality of voltage and power is important. A background in electrical engineering is not required.

During this training, we will cover terms such as harmonics and reactive power. The influence of equipment such as led lighting, frequency inverters and solar panels on the quality of electrical installations is also discussed.

The ‘Introduction to Power Quality’ training is suitable for anyone who would like to know more about Power Quality. During this training, no technical aspects are discussed and non-technical terminology is used. Therefore, this training is easy to follow for those with a limited electrical engineering knowledge/background.

Customer specific

For groups with a minimum of 10 participants, we can create a customer-specific training. These can be given at your own company premises, a different location of your choice or at the Eindhoven University of Technology (subject to availability).
