Short Circuit Analysis - Self Study Course

$89.00 for 0.8 CEUs / 8.0 PDHs - Incredible Value Only $11.13 per hour!

This self-study course includes a PDF of the distance learning program designed to teach you how to perform short circuit calculations and equipment adequacy evaluation.  Many calculation examples are used to illustrate how to perform an analysis.  

The course includes a copy of the work book in PDF format written by Jim Phillips, P.E. that he uses in his live classes. In addition to the PDF file of the workbook you will receive Jim's commentary and solved example problems as part of the file.  Successful completion of this course will result in the participant being awarded 0.8 CEUs / 8.0 PDHs of Continuing Education Credit.

The methods used in this course are based on the IEEE Buff and Red books.  This program is recommended for personnel responsible for the specification, maintenance and operation of power distribution systems such as designers, engineers, and electricians.  It also makes an excellent review for the Electrical Professional Engineer Exam.
