Electrical Noise Effects On Instrumentation Control Equipment Course
Course Overview:
The course on cover electronics gives deep cuts on grounding and noise considerations in relation to control equipment and computers.
Grounding principles, the relation between earth ground and electrical systems, and how to employ NEC standards for grounding will be taught to the participants.
The Short Circuit Analysis and design also focuses on transmission of noise and interference, approaches aimed at instrument noise reduction, and the effect of harmonics on the power and sensitive devices.
This five-day course goes beyond theory and practice enabling engineers and technicians working in the fields of instrumentation, control, electrical and IT to acquire hands on skills related to system safety, reliability and performance.
Course Objectives:
Upon the successful completion of this course, each participant will be able to:-
- Learn the relationship between earth ground to electricity and electrical shock
- Understand why some electrical systems are connected to earth ground
- Use the National Electric Code (NEC) as standard for grounding instrument systems
- Understand how people become part of an electrical circuit and how to avoid it
- Understand what a ground loop is
- Compare noise and interference and how they are transmitted
- Identify instrument signal wiring and conductors
- Use methods to reduce instrument noise
- Understand the effects of harmonics on power systems, control systems, and computers
