21 - 23 Apr 2025 Online (Zoom)
About this Course:There is a booming demand for standby and prime power diesel generators in the region. Needless to explain the diesel generators importance in all power plants as black start units and in many cases as prime power units, contractors and consultants used to struggle when it comes to sizing the suitable generators for certain load types and for certain load profiles and when it comes to interpreting specifications and how customize the diesel generator and make it comply and meet these specifications. This course will answer this and many other concerns.
