WLV-04 Don’t Let Electrical Surges Scorch Your Business
Nazim Matmati, ABB
Surges voltages cause over $2 billion in damage annually in the USA;
damage to buildings, electrical distribution, telephone and computer
installations. Downtime for businesses can impact operational revenues
and destroy customer satisfaction. Surge protection is essential to avoid
business and equipment losses, but how can you be sure that you have
the right surge protection? Why do you need it? How do you size it?
What ABB has to offer? Why wait? Let ABB show you the simple solution to world class protection.
Session 4 • 4:00-5:00 p.m.

maximize the reliability and safety of the system. In many old plants,
the equipment may be decades old and actually beyond its design
life. Options will be presented to upgrade and extend the life of this
equipment. The equipment covered will include liquid-filled and dry
type transformers, LV and MV switchgear and motor control centers,
and relay protection.

Session 5 • 8:00-9:00 a.m.
WEB-03 How to Specify the Right Power Distribution
System for Your Plant
Ken Tison, ABB
This class gives you an overview of the electric power distribution
system and options available to maximize reliability and safety.
You will be briefed on key issues such as circuit design, equipment
ratings, physical layout, maintenance, environmental and safety
considerations. The equipment covered will include liquid-filled and
dry type transformers, low and medium voltage switchgear, motor
control centers, and relay protection.
Session 6 • 9:30-10:30 a.m.
WEB-04 Medium and Low Voltage Switchgear:
IEC and ANSI - ABB Has Them All!
Lutz Boettger, ABB
This class gives you a summary of the fundamental differences between
ANSI and IEC. We will describe the main features of IEC equipment and
provide an overview over ABB’s IEC product portfolio. IEC is a global
standard, with 90% of the electricity generated worldwide flowing
through IEC equipment. ABB is the world-leading manufacturer of IEC
equipment.

WEB-06 Protection Solutions for Your Electrical
& Electronic System Investments
Tom Bigger, Metal Systems Inc.
Session 10 • 4:30-5:30 p.m.
WEB-05 Open Wound? Cast? Liquid?:
Which Transformer Technology is Right for This Application
John Marlowe, ABB
This session presents solution ideas and options to house and protect
your system investments in custom designed metal enclosures,
consoles, cabinets, and Power Control Rooms (PCR). The proper
protection solution assures extended life of the equipment, particularly
in the harshest operating environments, including NFPA Hazardous
areas. Combine mixed power and control equipment, and their
installation, wiring and testing in a PCR, with environmental control,
for a convenient and extremely cost effective solution.
This session will provide you with a discussion of the different
technologies available for industrial distribution transformers. From
cast to liquid to dry, each of these technologies has its own inherent
strengths. Our presentation assembles data from various sources
in order to provide information to evaluate liquid-filled and dry-type
transformers. The basis of comparison is a general product description
of product development and design. We will outline the unique
capabilities and strengths of each technology, and provide you with a
decision matrix for selecting the right technology for your needs and
applications.
Session 8 • 1:30-2:30 p.m.
WEB-01 Como Especificar un Sistema de Distribución
Eléctrica Efectivo Para su Planta
Guillermo Rodroguez, ABB
Esta clase da una vista general del sistema de distribuciòn elèctrica y
las opciones disponibles para maximizar la confiabilidad y la seguridad.
Se le dara un résumen de los puntos claves tales como diseño de
cirucitos, capacidades de equipos, disposición física, mantenimiento,
y consideraciones generales y del medio ambiente. El equipo cubierto
incluye transformadores secos y aislados en líquido, celdas de
media y baja tensión, centros de control de motores y relevadores de
protección.
Session 9 • 3:00-4:00 p.m.
WSE-11 Mantenimiento y Extensión de Vida de su Sistema
de Distribución Eléctrica para una Operación Segura y
Confiable
Guillermo Rodriguez, ABB
Esta clase da una vista general del equipo en un sistema de distribución
eléctrica y las recomendaciones de mantenimiento para maximizar
la confiabilidad y seguridad del sistema. En muchas plantas antiguas
el equipo puede tener varias décadas de vida y estar más allá de
de su vida útil de diseño. Se presentan alternativas para extender la
vida del equipo y aumentar su capacidad nominal. El equipo cubierto
incluye transformadores secos y aislados en líquido, celdas de media
tensión y baja tensión, centros de control de motores y relevadores de
protección.

TLV-01 Active Filters: Mitigating Harmonics
and Energy Savings for Your Facility
Keith Jones, ABB
The tool of choice in the future for harmonic mitigation will be the Active
Filter. This presentation will discuss the benefits and advantages of the
ABB PQF Active Filter. Actual installation case studies will be presented
that demonstrate the potential energy savings achievable when using
ABB PQF Active Filter technology.
Session 12 • 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
WEB-02 How to Protect Personnel
and Reduce Arc Flash Exposure
Matt Polk, ABB • Rick Gardner, ABB • David Wilhelm, ABB
This session will highlight arc flash dangers to personnel and solutions
that are available to manage those hazards. ABB has developed
a number of solutions for LV and MV switchgear to match various
requirements. These include arc-resistant switchgear for new
installations, and for new or existing installations: current limiters
and arc flash sensors that enhance equipment protection by speeding
detection and limiting equipment damage.
