Electric Power Distribution Workshops
The Missouri University of Science and Technology (Missouri S&T), formerly University of Missouri-Rolla, in cooperation with Cooper Power Systems, offers a series of two- and three-day workshops on a broad range of topics related to electric power distribution. All courses feature highly polished workshop notes and PowerPoint presentations. These workshops are available for in-house or captive workshops.

2010 Open Registration Workshops:

• Symmetrical Components: March 11-12
• Fundamentals of Power Distribution: March 31-April 2
• Overcurrent Protection: May 26-28
• Distribution Voltage Regulation: August 17-19

Basic Electricity
This course covers AC/DC fundamentals, Ohm's Law, typical load, and generation concepts. Addresses relationships between voltage, ohms, amperes, three-phase voltage, current and power in wye/delta circuits, the effects of resistors, inductors, and capacitors. Calculate single- and three-phase values and use multimeters in lab for problem solving work-related DC circuits.

New Workshops from UL University
Learn from UL experts by attending one of our new and upcoming workshops.

Topics include:

• PV installation, design, and sales
• PV certification and NEC for PV
• Specifying printed wiring boards in end-product applications
• Industrial control panels – UL 508A
• Consumer electronics – IEC 60065
• Test, measurement, and laboratory use equipment – UL 61010-1

Switchgear Maintenance
The Switchgear Maintenance program from Eaton Corp. is designed for engineers, technicians, and others who are responsible for maintaining low-voltage and medium-voltage power circuit breaker switchgear. Emphasis is on inspecting, evaluating tests, and understanding the engineered safety systems. Training is conducted by experienced power systems engineers.

Overcurrent Protection Basics for Designers & Specifiers
It's hard to overstate the importance that overcurrent protection devices play in safeguarding equipment and people while minimizing downtime in today's industrial and commercial environments. Recent changes in the NEC, NFPA 70E, and UL standards have created challenges for those responsible for designing or maintaining electrical power systems and equipment. This half-day seminar will provide you with an up-to-date understanding of key overcurrent protection issues. A certificate of completion (four instruction hours) will be provided for those needing CEU credits.

Principles and Applications of Fuel Cell Technology
Fuel cell technologies are moving out of the research lab and are rapidly becoming economically competitive solutions in niche market applications such as lift trucks, backup power, and combined heat and power. As fuel cell technologies are adopted on a wider basis, engineers will need to understand their value proposition and operating principles. This two-day seminar is designed to give engineers and technicians a fundamental understanding of fuel cell system operation and provide examples of real-world applications. This course focuses on applications where fuel cell technologies are being adopted as economically competitive solutions to batteries and diesel generators. This seminar will benefit engineers, material scientists, and technical managers interested in energy efficiency, energy storage, and related fields.
