A Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Power quality tools gain three-level support from
Fluke (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "The 1-2-3 approach includes a free DVD, a web-based or local hands-on seminar and an online information library of case studies and application notes.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Power quality training for free from
Fluke (UK): "Free "hands-on" power quality training seminars are designed for electricians and electrical engineers involved in troubleshooting the causes of poor power quality.".
In February 2008, we covered the news from Fluke (UK)
- take a look at Recorder tracks down power problems
which says: "The Fluke VR1710 can help users pinpoint the root causes of voltage problems by recording data specified by a user-selected average period on voltage trends, dropouts and power quality parameters.".
Take a look also at the news release from Fluke (UK), Seminars promise power quality knowledge,
as well as Voltage performance meter is quick and easy to use from Ideal Industries (UK),
and Loggers solve hard-to-find power quality issues from Fluke (UK).
