Introduction to Industrial and Distribution Systems Transients and Applications of EMTP/ATP

Date: April 24-25, 2017 (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM)
Location: Windsor A Room, The Carriage House Inn, 9030 MacLeod Trail S, Calgary, AB
Register at: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/42567 Registration closes April 13
More info at: here

This tutorial includes an introduction to industrial and distribution system transients topics such as:

  • Transient Recovery Voltage (TRV)
  • Capacitor Switching
  • Large Motor Capacitance/Reactance Starting
  • Ferroresonance in Potential Transformer (PT) and distribution transformers
  • Induction in fences and pipelines parallel to a long run of overhead line
  • Harmonics in Distribution Systems, and
  • Other relevant applications
The tutorial will introduce the EMTP/ATP and the associated ATPDraw preprocessor. Participants will benefit from the hands-on portion of the tutorial to familiarize attendees with the software by developing examples using these tools.

Please note: The official process for licencing of the royalty-free version of the software is found at the following website: http://eeug-test.hostingkunde.de/index.php/how-to/be-licenced. Participants are advised the licencing process can take a few weeks and is only available to those qualified under the licensing agreement.

Call for Nominations: IEEE Awards

The IEEE Awards Board administers the highest medals, awards, and recognitions presented by IEEE on behalf of the IEEE Board of Directors. All IEEE members are encouraged to submit a nomination for a worthy candidate within their technical fields.

Nominations are due 15 June annually for IEEE Medals and IEEE Recognitions. IEEE Medals are the highest recognition within the IEEE awards hierarchy, with the prestigious IEEE Medal of Honor as the premier award. They embrace broad and significant contributions within the technical fields of interest of IEEE. IEEE Recognitions reward member's individual contributions to IEEE, published papers, and corporate advancements within the IEEE fields of interest. Recipients of IEEE Medals and Recognitions are recognized at the annual IEEE Honors Ceremony.
