Electrical Power Transformer Training
Description
This course offers a complete training program in power transformation, offering you and your employees a course in mastering the concepts of single-phase and three-phase power. The participant will be provided with the knowledge to properly connect, maintain, service, select and inspect a variety of electrical service transformers. The course will be an instructor-led, hands-on class, which will allow the participant to physically connect transformers, practice matching transformer bank rotation for motor rotation, understand the placement of transformer and the cooling requirements and use the electrical measurement equipment. Books, handouts, charts and other reference material will be provided for all participants. This course would be helpful for electricians, engineers, inspectors, safety personnel and other employees responsible for the operation and maintenance of electrical transformer systems in a commercial, industrial, institutional or utility setting.
