The input power quality issues (system side po wer quality) will be investigated: line-side voltage & current harmonics\, voltage input range and regulation\, voltage disturbance (transients\, sa gs\, swells\, interruptions)\, voltage waveform notching. Special attentio n will be given to system grounding methods and equipment grounding. The p resentation also considers the impact of the VSD on increased generator lo ading\, reduced power factor\, and overheating of cables and transformers. Present day solutions based on input filtering will be described. It will be shown these input power quality issues will increase equipment failure \, or at least tripping of equipment\, as well as increasing operating cos ts. The webinar will include filter design techniques reviewing various in put drive harmonic mitigation solutions such as line reactors (chokes)\, p hase-shifting drive transformers\, and drive input filters (passive or act ive). A variety of real-world examples will be shared to illustrate these concepts\, symptoms and solutions.\n\n"Fine Print"\n\n- The webinar is fre e for active IEEE members.\n- There is a $5 registration fee for people wh o are not active IEEE members.\n\n- The fee must be paid in advance throug h the registration process below (credit card through PayPal) in order to receive the link to the webinar.\n- Upon successful payment of the fee\, y ou will receive 2 emails: one from noreply_vtools@ieee.org with title "IEE E vTools Reservation Confirmation\," and a second from service@intl.paypal .com with title "Your payment to The Institute of Electrical and Electroni cs Engineers\, Inc."
