Electrical Training Programs by Jim Phillips, P.E.
Spanning almost 30 years Jim Phillips, P.E. has conducted over 1,800 live electrical training seminars for tens of thousands of people, from the U.S. and all seven continents on Earth (Yes Antarctica is included!).
Jim is a member of the IEEE 1584 Working Group "Guide for Performing Arc Flash Hazard Calculations", and has developed 26 training programs based on his vast experience with electrical utilities, large industrial companies and government agencies. His programs include subjects such as NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety, Arc Flash Studies, Power System Design, Short Circuit and Coordination Studies, The National Electrical Code, Grounding, Motors, Harmonics, Relaying, Symmetrical Components and many others.
Jim's unique teaching style and ability to answer the tough questions make complex subjects easy-to-understand. Class participants continually rate him as one of the best instructors in the industry.
ARC FLASH FORUM
The Arc Flash Forum / Electrical Safety Forum is a global community for sharing knowledge about arc flash and electrical safety. People from all over the world are joining in. Post all of your Arc Flash, NFPA 70E, NESC, OSHA and IEEE 1584 questions, comments and answers here.
ON-SITE TRAINING PROGRAMS - 26 CLASSES TO CHOOSE FROM
Need to ramp up your electrical safety program? Does the new NFPA 70E requirment of adding either the calculated incident energy or the hazard risk category have you confused? Bring Jim to your location with one of his many electrical training programs such as NFPA 70E, Electrical Safety and How To Perform an Arc Flash Study based on IEEE 1584.
JIM HAS CLASSES ON EVERY MAJOR POWER SYSTEM TOPIC! - 26 different training programs that he has developed with subjects ranging from Electrical Design, NEC, Short Circuit and Coordination Studies, Grounding, Medium Voltage Power Systems, Relaying, Symmetrical Components, Harmonics, Arc Flash, IEEE 1584 and many others.

Fundamentals of Power System Analysis - Per Unit and Symmetrical Components
2 Days - $695 Send 3 and the 4th is Free!
- Canton, OH - September 16 - 17, 2010
This is one of Jim's more frequently requested classes by those wanting to learn more about power system analysis. The class includes Per Unit and Symmetrical Components which are both a fundamental part of power system analysis. Unfortunately, these important subjects are not always covered in the college curriculum. Jim bases this class on his extensive power system analysis background and takes the magic and mystery out of Symmetrical Components and Per Unit with his simplified and straight forward approach.
Whether you are just learning these concepts or are preparing for the P.E. exam, this course is a must for all that want a better understanding of power system analysis. The most frequently heard comment by students is "I wish I had this class BEFORE I took the P.E. exam the first time"
How to Perform an Arc Flash Calculation Study - Workshop
2 Days - $695 Send 3 and the 4th is Free!
- Canton, OH - May 6 - 7, 2010
Learn how to save tens of thousands of dollars or more by performing the arc flash calculation study yourself. This class goes way beyond the "typical" arc flash class by taking you through the necessary steps to perform the detailed arc flash study and calculations. Learn the 2009 NFPA 70E, the NESC requirements and how to perform the actual IEEE 1584 calculations. Comply with OSHA, NFPA 70E, NESC and IEEE 1584 requirements. Jim covers both industrial and utility power systems. He is a member of the IEEE 1584 working group, and he also wrote the guide: "How to Perform an Arc Flash Study in 12 Steps" published by NFPA's NEC Digest. See why instructors from the other training companies attend Jim's class first, to see how its done!
