DESCRIPTION:Early registration and discounted pricing ends on May 19th.\n\n
 Registration and payment for this workshop must be completed by Thursday M
 ay 19\, 2022 to ensure you will have the class materials in time for the w
 orkshop.\n\nFriday May 20\, 2022 is the final day for registering.\n\nThis
  one-day workshop will take a deep dive into Power System Safety & Lightni
 ng Protection and the role of grounding and bonding. Seminar topics will i
 nclude grounding system design principles\, grounding system performance\,
  IEEE Standard 80 design procedures\, soil characterization\, integrated g
 rounding system design procedures\, and ground design for lightning. This 
 Workshop is intended for Electrical Designers\, Estimators\, and Field Eng
 ineers\, and is highly recommended as a review supplement for those prepar
 ing to take the Electrical P.E. exam. In addition\, there will be exhibits
  by industry manufacturers and suppliers.\n\nAttendees are advised to brin
 g a laptop or notebook. Power and limited WIFI will be available.\n\nUpon 
 completion of the workshop\, participants will receive a PDH certificate f
 or six hours.\n\nThe workshop fee includes breakfast tacos\, breakfast bev
 erages and break refreshments.\n\nAll cancellation and refund requests mus
 t be submitted in writing and received by James Mercier at the address abo
 ve prior to May 20\, 2022. There will be a 20% processing fee charged for 
 all refunds. Fees paid after May 20\, 2022\, will be paid at the door via 
 check payable to IEEE-CTS.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Sapan Vyas\n\nSpeaker(s): P
