Rail Earthing Fundamentals - Melbourne 2013
July 16 - 17, 2013
Melbourne , Australia
A must-attend course that will benefit all those in the rail industry who have had only a little exposure to earthing in rail - build your confidence and appreciation of the technical language.
This course provides participants with a sound basis in science and practical examples for understanding and problem solving with earthing systems in the rail environment.
The course begins with an introduction to the physics of earthing including the areas of circuit fundamentals, conductive effects, proximity, mutual earth resistance and inductive coupling.
It will then cover soil resistivity fundamentals, field testing and model assessment and derivation before moving on to empirical and analytical voltage design methods and analysis issues for typical applications.
From 8:15 am to 5:00 pm
Price
2 Day Training Course $ 2744.50 AUD
Key Learning Outcomes
Illuminate the mislabelled ‘Black Art’ of earthing
Discover the science and craft required to make wise decisions regarding earthing system requirements
Discuss matters relevant to safety and earthing systems in organisations
Appreciate the complex problems of inductive and conductive interrelationships between substation and power line earthing systems and other conductive assets such as tracks, cabling and fencing
Recognise a coordinated approach to the design and management of power earthing systems, lightning protection systems and other rail systems
Understand inspection and testing as imperative tools in earthing system management
Investigate techniques for solving problems found in earthing system design, using both empirical and analytical computer based techniques
