This course is designed to give practicing engineers and system designers relevant concepts for sizing electric utility service entrance equipment. The course explains numerous techniques for determining the appropriate load values to consider for both residential and commercial loads. The course is full of practical ideas on how to determine load based on limited information. There are sections on selecting transformers based on loading and voltage needs and for sizing service entrance conductors, and sections on calculating flicker limits and short-circuit currents. The information in this course can be used as a guideline to develop your own sizing criteria. Note: this course is directed toward the utility equipment and does not cover the customer-owned equipment requirements of the NEC.
