Overview
Credit: 2 PDH
Length: 35 pages
This course provides an overview of power distribution industrial facilities. Since almost every facility in the country has some single phase 120/240 volt power to run single phase 120 volt and 240 volt loads, this power supply is explained first.
Single phase systems are then expanded to three phase systems, starting with 120/208 volt three phase which has 120 volt single phase available. Smaller facilities can use this supply to run three phase loads such as motors and also run 120 volt single phase outlets. Next, larger delta and wye three phase sources are explained. Finally, the course covers high voltage distribution systems for larger facilities. In the process, single line diagrams are introduced.
