ABOUT TRAINING
Engineering personnel operating a company’s electrical equipment and networks must consider three aspects: reliability, safety, and cost-effectiveness of solutions. When troubleshooting electrical equipment, relocating existing equipment, or connecting new equipment, the engineer must make a quick, reliable, cost-effective decision. During the training, the tasks of optimizing electricity losses, improving energy quality, and increasing the reliability of network elements are solved.
WHY USEFUL?
EA-PSM Electric Academy – two days of practical training. During the training, the EA-PSM Electric program is installed on your computer. Each training participant will have the opportunity to create a network diagram (or part of the diagram) of their company, perform calculations and assess the condition of the electricity industry. After the training, participants will use the program for 2 months free of charge. During this period, consultations on the use of the program are provided free of charge.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For electrical engineers, designers and operational engineers of industrial enterprises. For those who want to perform high-quality calculations, responsibly model possible situations in the electricity network and select the most suitable solutions.
