When performing the power system studies of short circuit\, coordination\, and arc flash studies there are many err ors that can be made that will impact the results. These errors can be fro m lack of information modeled\, input error or lack of understanding of sy stem operation. This talk will go through the different study applications and identify both where these errors can occur and how to spot them durin g a review. This talk will utilize SKM\, a power systems analysis software \, to highlight where the errors can be made and how to spot them. This ta lk will help both the power system engineer who is performing the studies but also the end user to quickly validate that the results that they have are correct. By ensuring the correct results are present the end user can utilize the information found in the report to help improve their facility as well as provide their workers with the information that allows them to make informed decisions while performing tasks that expose them to an ele ctrical and arc flash hazard.\n\n[Potomac Testing]\n\nSpeaker(s): Kevin\n\ nAgenda: \nPLEASE MAKE NOTE OF THESE IMPORTANT NEW INSTRUCTIONS STARTING S EPTEMBER 2026:\n\nWe will be alternating again this year between the Cragw ood Road and Hadley Road locations. New security procedures now require ad vanced clearance for entry to the buildings. Effective immediately\, regis tration will close at 5PM the evening before the event. There will be no l ate registrations permitted. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO IMPOSE ON OUR GENEROU S HOST FOR ANY EXCEPTIONS TO THIS POLICY.\n\nThe seminar fee includes lunc h\, refreshments and handouts. Non-members joining IEEE within 30 days of the seminar will be rebated 50% of the IEEE registration charge.\n\nFour h ours of instruction will be provided. If desired\, IEEE Continuing Educati on Units (0.4 CEUs) will be offered for this course - a small fee of $55 w ill be required for processing.\n\nPlease pay attention to the “Registra tion Fee” and choose the appropriate choice either with or without CEUs. \n\nCEU Evaluation Form can be found at: [IEEE Power & Energy North Jersey - IEEE Credentialing Program](https://credentials.ieee.org/certificates/p es-north-jersey/)\n\nRoom: Transformer & Reactor Rooms\, Bldg: PSE&G - Cra gwood Road Facility\, 40 Cragwood Road\, South Plainfield\, New Jersey\, U nited States\, 07080 LOCATION:Room: Transformer & Reactor Rooms\, Bldg: PSE&G - Cragwood Road Fa cility\, 40 Cragwood Road\, South Plainfield\, New Jersey\, United States\ , 07080 ORGANIZER:RWQuade@ieee.org SEQUENCE:50 SUMMARY:Power Systems Basics URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/574774 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>Introduction &ndash\; Goal<br>Short Circui t<br>Coordination<br>Arc Flash<br>Final &ndash\; Tips and Tricks</p>\n<p>P ower System Studies are a vital part of a well-maintained electrical syste m. &nbsp\;When performing the power system studies of short circuit\, coor dination\, and arc flash studies there are many errors that can be made th at will impact the results. &nbsp\;These errors can be from lack of inform ation modeled\, input error or lack of understanding of system operation. &nbsp\;This talk will go through the different study applications and iden tify both where these errors can occur and how to spot them during a revie w. &nbsp\;This talk will utilize SKM\, a power systems analysis software\, to highlight where the errors can be made and how to spot them.
