Upcoming Event:
Joint ISA/IEEE Meeting
Installation Considerations Using AC PWM Drives
Chris Carroll
Rockwell Automation
Mr. Carroll will give
a presentation on the theory of load side issues like reflected waves,
common mode noise, and cable charging currents. Along with case
studies, he will provide solutions for each issue. His primary
emphasis will be power quality issues common to all drive
manufacturers' Pulse Width Modulaton (PWM) drives. He will
explain the physical causes of
the issues and the wiring and grounding techniques to minimize the
effects.
Next Meeting: Monday, April 21, 2008
Time: 6:00 pm
Place: America's Best
Value Inn
Augusta, near I-20 Washington Rd

Meeting Location: This meeting will be at: America's Best Value Inn
which is located on Washington Rd near I-20.
Directions to the Inn are: drive down Washington Road out of Augusta
towards I-20. After you go under the I-20 overpass, there will be
2 stoplights. At the corner of the second light is a RACEWAY gas
station, on the right. (Across the street from the Dunkin
Donuts.) The America's Best Value Inn is immediately after the gas
station.
DO NOT turn at the light since that goes to the frontage road.
Chris
Connell has been working with AC and DC drives for over 31 years.
In 1987 he joined Rockwell Automation and has worked for them ever
since. For the first eleven years he was a field service engineer
, traveling around the world commissioning drive systems and
fixing problems. For the last ten years he managed the
Drives and Power Business for Georgia, North Carolina, and South
Carolina.
The South Carolina Council
of the IEEE has been working to create a web site that will support the
professional and career needs of electrical engineers based in our
state. The new web site contains important IEEE links, real time news
feeds and a wealth of other links that will connect the engineer with
technology and job related resources. The South Carolina Council of the
IEEE invites all electrical engineers in the state to use this
important resource and make it their start page each morning. The page
can be found at:
