Solvina presents an exclusive 3 day Professional Seminar onPartial DischargeBy Greg StoneDielectrics Engineer with over 30 years of experience in the applicationand testing of large motor and generator windingsApril 12-14, 2010 in Gothenburg, SwedenThis seminar helps you monitor the condition of thestator winding insulation used in your motors andgenerators, and to plan maintenance based on thatcondition.Cost: 16500 SEK excl. VAT (students discount 50 % in order of vacancy)Last date of registration: 10 March, limited number of participantsCourse administrator: Alexander Perup, education@solvina.se, +46 (0) 31-709 63 22

COURSE OBJECTIVESTo understand the basics of statorwinding insulation.To understand basic PD theory.To understand how PD detectiondevices work.To interpret the test data collected andrelate the data to specific failuremechanisms, to enable you to planmaintenance.WHO SHOULD ATTEND?The course is designed for engineering andmaintenance personnel, who purchase, install,test, maintain and/or repair motors and/orgenerators. Consultants, manufacturers andrepair shop personnel would also benefit fromthis course.SPEAKER’S PROFILEGreg Stone, Dielectrics EngineerGreg has over 30 years of experience inthe application and testing of large motorand generator windings.
