The PES / IAS Chapters and the Life Member Affinity Group will sponsor a technical seminar on

Motor Bus Transfer Applications: Issues and Considerations

The session will be held on:

Friday, December 18, 2015 at PSE&G - 4000 Hadley Road, South Plainfield, NJ 07080-1192

Topic:  Do you know…

  • That transferring within the ANSI C50.41 prescribed time limit criterion may actually damage your motors? Learn why time is not an optimum transfer performance prediction metric.
  • That using the ANSI C50.41 prescribed resultant per unit V/Hz criterion does not correlate with reacceleration torque? See oscillographs results that show transfer torque is the key metric and that per unit V/Hz is not a positive success indicator.
  • The various initial phenomena across the alternate source breaker that absolutely would preclude an immediate Fast Transfer.
  • When Fast Transfer is not possible, In-phase transfer offers a whole new dimension in transfer opportunities.
  • That coordinated use of the fast and in-phase transfer can offer safe transfer and maintain process continuity? See how the settings are developed without the need for a study or ringdown test.
  • Analysis of live Motor Bus Transfer field results at power generation and petrochemical facilities are presented to derive and propose a new transfer criterion based on the ratio of the aggregate peak torque after the transfer to the aggregate load torque prior to transfer.
  • A new relay test protocol is proposed to fill the need for industry performance requirements of devices supervising Motor Bus Transfer.
  • Explore both field and test results as In-Phase and Fast Transfer methods coordinate synchronous transfer under widely varying dynamic conditions.

Biography:

Thomas R. Beckwith received a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) from Case Western Reserve University and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree from the University of South Florida. He is a member of the IEEE PES and the IEEE IAS. Tom has served on working groups in the Power System Relaying Committee since 1972. He was the chair of the working group that produced IEEE C37.90.1-2012 Standard for Surge Withstand Capability (SWC) Tests for Relays and Relay Systems Associated with Electric Power Apparatus. Tom is a co-inventor of a 1993 U.S. patent on a Multifunction Protective Relay System. He is presently CEO of Beckwith Electric Co., Inc. and previously held positions as Production Manager, Vice President of Sales and Marketing and President of the Beckwith Engineering Services and Training (BEST) division. Since 1970, Tom has served as R&D Design Engineer, Systems Engineer, and Field Commissioning Engineer.

Agenda

The seminar fee includes lunch, refreshments and handouts.  Non-members joining IEEE within 30 days of the seminar will be rebated 50% of the IEEE registration charge.

Four hours of instruction will be provided.  If desired, IEEE Continuing Education Units (0.4 CEUs) will be offered for this course - a small fee of $45 will be required for processing.

Please pay attention to the “Registration Fee” and choose the appropriate choice either with or without CEUs.
