FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

2005 Protection Relay Seminar Offered

Largo, FL - March 21, 2005- Beckwith Electric Co., Inc., a premier provider of goods and services for industries involved with electric power, invites you to attend their annual Protection Seminar to be held September 25 - 29, 2005 in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Now, more than ever, is the time to learn how to improve the security and dependability of generator, transformer and distributed generation (DG) interconnection electrical protection in both utility and non-bulk power systems. Since the recent blackout of August 14, 2003, these topics have moved into the forefront as the industry attempts to improve asset security, preserve power delivery, and boost the integrity of the bulk power system.

This intensive four-day seminar builds the background needed to understand the complex subject of generator, transformer and DG interconnection protection, even with a limited knowledge of protective relaying. Those who should attend include: Utility engineers, consultants (especially those involved with IPP/DG design), equipment/control engineers, generator packager and manufacturer engineers as well as others who specify protective equipment and develop settings for the electrical protection of generators, transformers and DG interconnections.

The cost of the seminar is $850 and includes all course materials, lunches, morning and afternoon breaks, group dinner and a Sunday evening welcome reception. Deadline to register is Friday, July 22, 2005. Enrollment is limited on a first-come, first-serve basis. A 15% group discount is available to companies that register three or more participants at the same time.

On Friday, September 30, following the Protection Seminar, Beckwith Electric
will be holding its first-ever Industry Super Session. Addressing issues
not covered in traditional seminars and training sessions, it features instruction by leading experts.

Our respected and highly-qualified instructors will provide you extensive power quality information starting from the basics to the latest industry guidelines such as the IEEE 519, power quality monitoring, problem solving, contemporary topics in harmonics mitigation, and power factor correction. The Super Session includes “real world” applications, practical examples, and case studies with discussion of problems and solutions. Attendees will also receive a packet of valuable resource materials.

Cost is only $295 and includes all course materials, breakfast, and lunch. Sign-up today along with the Protection Seminar and save $100. $1045 for the entire week!
