When designing electrical distribution systems, selective coordination is a fundamental piece to ensuring the reliable operation of electrical systems and safeguarding against the cascading effects of faults. Dive into the intricacies of NFPA 70: National Electrical Code, and other NFPA requirements for coordination, time-current curves and optimizing systems for selective coordination.
Learn about the requirements, limitations and best practices of selective coordination.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Identify:
- NFPA 70, 99 and 110 requirements for coordination.
- The instantaneous trip functions of circuit breakers.
- The limitations of using time-current curves to achieve selective coordination.
- Determine how to:
- Use short circuit selective coordination table data.
- Optimize system designs for selective coordination.
