Transformer design and electrical theory cd course

Transformer design and electrical theory cd course

For sale is a CD that contains three seperate courses that will educate you on the design,
theory, and application of distribution transformers. There is a quiz after each course to
help you learn this information. The courses are in PDF format and can be opened using
Adobe Reader as well as the quiz sections and the answers. If you don't have Adobe Reader
you can down load it for free from their website. The information on this CD is for
personal development only and doesn't provide continuing education hours. I have
explained each course in better detail below:
Transformers (Electrical Characteristics)
The objectives of this course are to familiarize you with the electrical characteristics of transformers and how these characteristics influence the installation and operation of transformers on an electric distribution system. After taking this course, you will:
Understand how magnetism is used to transform voltages.
Know how to calculate the regulation of a transformer.
Know how to calculate the efficiency of a transformer.
Understand transformer polarity.
Understand the factors that contribute to losses within the transformer.
The objectives of this course are to help you understand the different types of distribution transformers available and how design standards affect the application of these transformers. After completing this course, you will:
Understand the different cooling methods used for distribution transformers.
Know the difference between a conventional and CSP transformer.
Understand the cooling designations.
Understand how various standards affect the application of a transformer.
Know how to account for different loading conditions on a transformer.
Know how to evaluate the cost of operating a transformer.
The objectives of this course are to help you understand how to apply distribution transformers in both single-phase and three-phase applications. After completing this course, you will:
Understand how to apply a single-phase transformer in a single-phase application.
Understand how to apply a single-phase transformer in a three-phase application.
Understand the application issues for delta-delta, delta-wye, wye-delta, and wye-wye transformer banks.
Understand the special considerations when applying open wye- open delta and open delta- open delta banks.
Understand when a wye-zig zag or a Scott T transformer bank might be used.
Know how to calculate the available fault current at the secondary of a distribution transformer.
