    Impact of Power Quality Events on Motor Driven Systems

    Impact of Power Quality Events on Motor Driven Systems

    Over their operating lives, motors and other equipment encounter various power quality events, including voltage unbalance, single-phasing, and momentary interruptions. Having familiarity with power quality events and how they impact facility operations is important. Adding equipment monitors and relays may provide long-term solutions to power quality issues.
    This webinar will analyze various power quality events to consider including specific examples that may aide in troubleshooting power quality electrical problems. Learning objectives:
    Understand electric utility basicsIdentify the most common types of power quality eventsExamine various power quality solutionsAchieve long-term reliable performance from motor driven equipment

    Culture–Can It Be Changed?

    Culture–Can It Be Changed?

    In my experience, there are three major influences on culture:
    Individual team members – Do they work together? Do they feel their voice is heard? Do they enjoy going to work every day?Supervision / management – Do they have an open door policy? Do they listen to employees? Are they willing to take acceptable risks with new ideas?Corporate – Are they driven by only the bottom line? Do they provide too much oversight?
    Easy efforts to improve the culture positively include ensuring that corporate, plant, department goals are clear, posted and understood, that communication occurs frequently at all levels, and that appropriate personnel are involved at the right level for decision making.
