IET Keynote Address: Offshore Windfarm Design Issues

October 30, 2011

IET TV offers some good keynote presentations in various engineering sectors from leading engineering experts. Here’s one I found on offshore wind farm design issues from Andrew Donalson, SSE. It gives some good insight into reallife wind farm design, installation, and project challenges, and how SSE is currently dealing with these challenges.

Alex McEahern: Use all Senses Except Taste to Identify PQ Problems

October 19, 2009

I have had an opportunity to meet Alex McEahern and talk to him during his visit and meeting with my PhD academic supervisor Prof. J V Milanovic. It was a pleasure talking and listening to his ideas, work and his company ‘Power Standards Lab’.

He developed an  interactive software teaching toy for young engineers like to me to understand and identify various  power quality problems. Links: Power Quality Teaching ToyOnline PQ tutorials; and Power Standard Lab.


Online Overhead Line High Voltage Inspection

October 18, 2009

This is a video showing the inspection of a live overhead electric transmission line.

For those power system engineers like me who spend most of their time at their work desk with ocassional field trips, this is one darn video bringing in the good blood rush up their veins. Pretty impressive and highly motivational!

Have Fun!
