This four week course presents a design philosophy for industrial and commercial power systems that includes protective device coordination and arc-flash hazard mitigation as an integral part process. The course begins with a review of short circuit analysis including symmetrical components. A look at some common problems encountered during arc-flash hazard analysis prepares the student for the design process. The remainder of the course is presented as a sample design for a small industrial facility. An initial design is done “by hand” within the constraints of the NEC. The initial design is then entered into one of the popular computer analysis packages for completion.
| Week 1 | Short circuit analysis, symmetrical components, and coordination. |
| Week 2 | Coordination, common arc-flash hazard problems, and beginning design |
| Week 3 | Designing to include coordination and arc-flash mitigation I |
| Week 4 | Designing to include coordination and arc-flash mitigation II |
