Getting it Done - Memories & Milestones - Penn State Hershey Medical Center

pennstatehershey.org Dr. John O. Hershey, President of The Milton Hershey School, was a driving force in keeping the project moving ahead. The infrastructure of the local community would have to be changed to support the introduction of a major medical center.Memories & Milestones documents stories of pioneering efforts from the first five decades of the Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center. Through the efforts of its thousands of faculty, staff, and students, the Medical Center has endeavored to build upon the legacy of its namesake, Milton S. Hershey, and extend the substantial reach of its parent university, Penn State, to improve health and the quality of life.

CVHF wye-delta arc flash

attempted to air-run the chiller for vibration analysis. There must have been a short to ground on the load side of the start contactor at the transistion resistor bank, behind a bundle of wires not visible if you are not looking for it. Needless to say, there was a short to ground and a pretty decent electrical explosion that looked like a fragmentation granade detonated in the starter panel.

Power Quality, Problems And Uninterruptible Power Supply Solutions

!±8± Power Quality, Problems And Uninterruptible Power Supply Solutions

Businesses and organisations are now totally dependent on electricity to run their data and voice processing systems. Power failures - short or long - can be devastating if they are not protected by UPS (uninterruptible power supplies).

However, a lesser-known threat - but equally troublesome - is that of power quality and problems in supply.

The causes of power quality issues are usually environmental: weather phenomenon (local lightning strikes and electrical storms), heavy loads being switched into and out of the supply; load shedding; cable and switchgear faults and sometimes interference from radio transmission equipment. They can cause hardware to lock, fail or re-boot resulting in equipment wear-and-tear and lost or corrupted data.

Power Problems. Sags are common: short-duration voltage reductions below the mains supply level that can last for several seconds. One of the most common causes is switching heavy loads (air-conditioners, motors, industrial machinery) into and out of the local electricity circuit.

Conversely, the same issues can cause surges, which are short-duration voltage increases above the mains power level, which can also last for several seconds. When voltages rise above the acceptable input window of a PSU (power supply unit), for example, built-in cut-out protection activates resulting in a system crash.

Brownouts are less common now but may become more frequent as demand for electricity continues to increase. They are classified as long-term reductions in mains power supply that can typically last for several days and compromise the effectiveness of other equipment, such as lighting.

Spikes and Transients are fast-moving, high-energy bursts (some in excess of 6kVA) lasting only a few milliseconds, superimposed onto a normal mains power supply. Their intensity can cause damage to circuit boards, processors, memory loss and data corruption. Possible causes are lightning strikes, electrical storms, local load shedding, relay-based thermostats and inductive motor loads.

Electrical Noise, which is a high-frequency sound, can be caused by flickering lights, cable and switchgear faults and occasionally interference from electronic equipment such as radio transmitters.

Harmonic pollution is a growing problem. Within the UK it is addressed by Engineering Recommendation G5/4-1, published by the Energy Networks Association. Harmonics are current and voltage waveforms, the frequencies of which are not in harmony with the fundamental which in Europe is 50Hz. Harmonics will create multiples of the fundamental and can cause wiring circuits and other electrical equipment to overheat and occasionally ignite.

An effective UPS solution should contain filters and frequency conditioners that shield and protect upstream equipment and attached loads from power quality problems. But power protection should always begin with a power quality review to asses the actually quality of mains supply and the level required. This should also include future demands, sources of alternative power on site and priority-based load shedding and shutdown.

For more information on power quality issues and how they can be addressed through the strategic use and implementation of UPS, see The Power Protection Guide, written by Robin Koffler and Jason Yates of Riello UPS and published by entiveon, or visit Riello UPS at Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) - Riello UPS Ltd - Power Protection.
