Unit Substation Engineering and Design Considerations

Large Commercial and Industrial Facilities that have received or distributed Medium Voltage (>1,000 Volts) install Unit Substations to provide power at Utilization Voltages (4,160 Volts or <1,000 Volts) for many years. Unit Substations include three major sections: Medium Voltage Disconnect and Transformer Protection Section; the Transformer Section: and the Secondary Protection and Distribution Section. This course describes various options and components within each section and how the options can be used to mitigate the effects of harmonics, to reduce incident energy levels due to arc flashes, and to provide data to building management systems.

Joseph F. Maida, PE

Topic:

Unit Substation Engineering and Design Considerations

Biography:

Joseph has a BSEE and MSEE in Electrical Engineering, has Professional Engineering Licenses in twenty-eight (28) states, is a LEED Accredited Professional, was the electrical engineer for the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code Review and Advisory Council from 2009 to 2011, and holds US Patent - US 10,765,958 for System, method, and apparatus for power limited sky diving wind tunnel drive train/fan. 

Prior to starting Maida Engineering, Inc, Joseph was a licensed electrical contractor in the City of Philadelphia, worked for Day and Zimmerman, Inc. and Delmarva Power and Light Company, all of which contributed to enhancing his knowledge of electrical power systems. This was especially apparent after he got his BSEE and started installing electrical systems for new houses, apartments, and commercial establishments.   

Joseph founded Maida Engineering, Inc.  in 1978 and attributes a large percentage the numerous opportunities it has had to Joseph’s past, present and on-going knowledge of electrical power distribution systems. These opportunities have resulted in and still contribute to engineering, design, and system integration projects throughout the Unites States, Canada, and Mexico for Commercial, Industrial, Governmental and Theme Park Clientele. 

Joseph continues to perform and/or oversee the performance the Electrical Power System Evaluations and Studies, continues to study, engineer and design new power distribution and control systems, and to write courses on the subject.
