Goal

The course offers a basic understanding of measuring and analysing network quality. A good basic understanding is essential in order to recognise signals indicating incorrect connections and/or settings. Correct interpretation of signals can prevent costly mistakes.

Target group

Installation managers, maintenance engineers, electrical engineers and energy consultants.

Subjects covered in the course

Basic terms

  • (T)RMS, Crest factor, peak values, average values, frequency
  • Safety (IEC61010-1), using pliers to take current readings, connecting voltage probes
