(Bob Hunter - Alphaguardian)\n\nIn the past few years\, cyber/physical security of power and lighting systems has come to the forefront as a critical subject for engineers. Yet\, despite its i mportance\, there is still a great deal of mystery as to rules\, regulatio ns and best practices to create secure systems to manage power and lightin g systems. In this presentation\, Bob Hunter will provide the latest Natio nal and State Standards together with Established Best Practices for incor porating cyber and physical security into your power and lighting projects . The goal is to equip every participant with a clear checklist of the sec urity requirements they must meet for electrical and lighting system desig ns.\n\nBob is Founder and CEO of AlphaGuardian Networks\, a pioneering lea der in the field of secure management for the Industrial Internet of Thing s. Previous to AlphaGuardian\, Bob was the Founder and CEO of TrendPoint S ystems\, the market leader in branch circuit energy metering – recently acquired by Schneider Electric. Prior to TrendPoint\, Bob was the Founder and CEO of NetBrowser Communications\, the pioneering leader in Web-based Facilities Monitoring. Bob is the author of several patents\, a published author and frequent speaker.\n\n2: Medium Voltage Power System Design (Gar y Fox\, ABB)\n\nThe discussion will offer an overview of medium voltage sy stem design. Specific topics include: how designing for medium voltage dif fers from designing low voltage systems\, reviewing available types of swi tchgear\, and what information the engineer should provide on single line diagrams. We will review PG&E requirements for service connections at dist ribution voltages such as 12kV and 21kV. (Connection of services that have distributed generation are beyond the scope of this presentation.) We wil l further review common overcurrent protection techniques for medium volta ge systems.\n\nGary H. Fox has been active in technical support for Northe rn California consulting engineers for over twenty years and industry expe rience spanning more than 40 years. He was employed by GE for over 40 year s and joined ABB in July 2018. A Senior IEEE Member\, his IEEE participati on includes holding officer positions for Chair for the San Francisco Chap ter\; Chair\, San Francisco Section\; and Chair\, San Francisco Bay Area C ouncil. He is currently serving as the chair for the IEEE 3001 standards w orking group (recommended practices for designing industrial and commercia l power systems) and as an officer for the San Francisco IAS Chapter. Gary received his BSEE from California Polytechnic State University\, San Luis Obispo\, and has been a California-licensed Professional Engineer since 1 982.\n\n3: MV Switchgear Control Power Battery Selection and Sizing (John Kim- EnerSys)\n\nThe presentation will focus on lead acid battery fundamen tals (what is a battery and how does it work)\, differences between VLA vs VRLA (similarities/differences and how to choose between them)\, factors affecting battery performance/life\, and battery sizing & selection proces s. Battery sizing portion will include putting a load profile together usi ng design margins and aging factors.\n\nJohn Kim has been in the battery i ndustry for 30 plus years. He has written numerous papers and presented at many industry related conferences including Battcon\, Doble\, Eurobat\, I ntelec\, Infobatt\, and IEEE chapter meetings. John is currently a member of Battcon’s technical committee. His battery background includes Engine ering (technical support\, R&D\, project management\, and manufacturing)\, Sales\, and Technical Marketing. He is also knowledgeable in battery sele ction\, specification writing\, maintenance\, and troubleshooting. John is Director of Utility market for EnerSys.\n\n4: NFPA 70E / IEEE 1584: Sign ificant Changes (Marcelo Valdes - ABB).\n\nIEEE 1584 is the IEEE Guide to Arc Flash Calculations. Originally published in 2004\, this document defin es the hazard that workers may encounter when working around live electric al equipment. The document is critical for the proper application of N?FPA 70E . The IEEE and the NFPA\, several years ago\, initiated a project to b etter understand arcing phenomena and to\, potentially\, develop a more ac curate model. After almost 2000 high current tests the model will soon be published. And\, the changes are substantial. This short presentation will describe the new model\, the parameters that go into the model and will r eview some of the practical differences the new model may make for your ar c flash study\, maintenance practices\, your design decisions\, and your p erception of the hazard presented by energized conductors.\n\nMr. Valdes w as with GE 41 years\, in field engineering\, sales\, product management\, marketing\, and application engineering. Since July 2018\, he is with ABB ’s Electrical Products division. Mr. Valdes is past Chair of various IEE E PES and IAS chapters in Northern California as well as past Chair of the 2014 IEEE Electrical Safety Workshop (IEEE-ESW). Mr. Valdes chairs the IE EE 1683-2014 working group “IEEE P1683 Guide for Specification and Selec tion of Low Voltage Motor Control Centers with Enhanced Safety Features” and is active in various other IEEE working groups\, mostly in electrical safety and electrical systems protection.\n\n5: MV VFDs (Tom Farr- Eaton) The speaker will review the application of MV drives and MV Starting Duty Only Drives in Industrial Power systems\, with the goal of reducing the to tal cost of system ownership.\n\nTom Farr is the Eaton Engineering Manager for MV Control and Drives\, based in Asheville\, NC\, and is a Senior IEE E Member. Tom has served on the IEEE Power System Relay Committee\, and ha s over 20 years of experience engineering medium voltage drive systems.\n\ nSpeaker(s): -\, \n\nAgenda: \n8:00 am – 8:10 am Introductions\n\n8:10 a m – 9:00 am Designing Secure Systems for Power and Lighting Management - Bob Hunter\, Alphaguardian (50 minutes)\n\n9:00 am – 9:50 am MV VFDs - Tom Farr\, Eaton (50 minutes)\n\n9:50 am – 10:05 am Morning Break (15 mi nutes)\n\n10:10 am – 11:00 am MV Switchgear Control Power Battery Select ion and Sizing - John Kim\, EnerSys (50 Minutes)\n\n11:00 am – 11:50 pm NFPA 70E / IEEE 1584: Significant Changes (Part 1) - Marcelo Valdes\, ABB (50 Minutes)\n\n11:50-am – 12:00pm Obtaining Seminar Ideas for 2020 (10 minutes)\n\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm Lunch\n\n1:00 pm – 2:20pm NFPA 70E / IE EE 1584: Significant Changes (Part 2) - Marcelo Valdes\, ABB (80 minutes)\ n\n2:20 pm – 2:40 pm Afternoon Break (20 minutes)\n\n2:40 pm – 4:10 pm Medium Voltage Power System Design - Gary Fox\, ABB (90 Minutes)\n\n4:10 pm – 4:30 pm Closing comments and vendor gift drawing (10 Minutes)\n\n70 50 Johnson Dr\, Pleasanton\, CA 94588\, Pleasanton\, California\, United S tates\, 94588 LOCATION:7050 Johnson Dr\, Pleasanton\, CA 94588\, Pleasanton\, California\ , United States\, 94588 ORGANIZER:finn.schenck@iemfg.com SEQUENCE:28 SUMMARY:IEEE SF/ IAS Electrical Engineering POWER SYSTEMS Seminar URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/183482 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><span style="font-size: 14pt\;">5&nbsp\; I mportant Topics&nbsp\; &nbsp\;One&nbsp\; Day</span></p>\n<p><span style="f ont-size: 14pt\;"><u>1:</u> <span style="text-decoration: underline\;"><st rong>Designing Secure Systems for Power and Lighting Managemen</strong></s pan>t.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt\;"> (Bob Hunter - Alphaguardian) </span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">&nbsp\;</span><span style= "font-size: 12pt\;">&nbsp\; In the past few years\, cyber/physical securit y of power and lighting systems has come to the forefront as a critical su bject for engineers.&nbsp\; Yet\, despite its importance\, there is still a great deal of mystery as to rules\, regulations and best practices to cr eate secure systems to manage power and lighting systems.&nbsp\; In this p resentation\, Bob Hunter will provide the latest National and State Standa rds together with Established Best Practices for incorporating cyber and p hysical security into your power and lighting projects.&nbsp\; &nbsp\;The goal is to equip every participant with a clear checklist of the security requirements they must meet for electrical and lighting system designs.</s pan></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">&nbsp\;</span><span style="fo nt-size: 12pt\;">Bob is Founder and CEO of AlphaGuardian Networks\, a pion eering leader in the field of secure management for the Industrial Interne t of Things.&nbsp\; Previous to AlphaGuardian\, Bob was the Founder and CE O of TrendPoint Systems\, the market leader in branch circuit energy meter ing &ndash\; recently acquired by Schneider Electric.&nbsp\; Prior to Tren dPoint\, Bob was the Founder and CEO of NetBrowser Communications\, the pi oneering leader in Web-based Facilities Monitoring.&nbsp\; Bob is the auth or of several patents\, a published author and frequent speaker.</span></p >\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">&nbsp\;</span><span style="font-size : 12pt\;">&nbsp\;</span><span style="font-size: 12pt\;"><span style="text- decoration: underline\;"><strong>2: <span style="font-size: 14pt\;">Medium Voltage Power System Design</span></strong></span> (Gary Fox\, ABB)</span ></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">&nbsp\;</span><span style="font- size: 12pt\;">The discussion will offer an overview of medium voltage syst em design.&nbsp\; Specific topics include: how designing for medium voltag e differs from designing low voltage systems\, reviewing available types o f switchgear\, and what information the engineer should provide on single line diagrams.
