IEEE Standard for Performance of Adjustable Speed AC Drives Rated 375 kW and Larger

IEEE Standard for Performance of Adjustable Speed AC Drives Rated 375 kW and Larger

Course Outline

This 7-hour course covers the performance standards for adjustable speed AC drives rated above 375 kW and above 750 V output voltage as used in petrochemical and similar applications.

The course materials are based entirely on IEEE Std. 1566-2005 IEEE Standard for Performance of Adjustable Speed AC Drives Rated 375 kW and Larger. It will be necessary for the student to obtain a copy of IEEE Std. 1566-2005 IEEE Standard for Performance of Adjustable Speed AC Drives Rated 375 kW and Larger. This is a very useful resource and is recommended for all practicing electrical or project engineers involved in the specification, design, protection, installation, and maintenance of Adjustable Speed Drives rated 375 kW and larger.

This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of the course materials.
