SUMMARY:The Disappearing Neutrals in a TN-C-S Network
DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. \nPlease view the PDF slides here or watch the video recording below:\n \nEmeritus Professor Akhtar Kalam’s Electrifying Mysteries\nThis webinar series provides a structured examination of real-world engineering challenges. Each session will address specific\, technically focused topics relevant to professional engineers. \nWebinar details\nThe webinar explores puzzling voltage instability and equipment damage caused by intermittent or lost neutrals in TN-C-S systems. Through forensic analysis of field cases\, participants uncover how mechanical joints\, diverted currents\, and load imbalances create elusive faults. The session exposes the fragility of assumed earth-neutral integrity. \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in UTC. You will need to convert this to your own time zone.\n\nKey takeaways from this webinar\n\nExplain the operating principles and vulnerabilities of TN-C-S (PME) earthing systems.\nIdentify symptoms and consequences of open or high-impedance neutrals.\nInterpret neutral current paths\, diverted currents\, and touch voltage risks.\nApply systematic testing and monitoring techniques to locate disappearing neutrals.\nIntegrate design\, inspection\, and maintenance practices to mitigate neutral failures.\n\nRelated courses\nThis webinar/topic relates to our school of Electrical Engineering and is particularly found in the following courses: \n\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Circuit Breakers\, Switchgear & Power Transformers\nProfessional Certificate of Competency in Power Distribution\n52888WA Advanced Diploma of Applied Electrical Engineering (Power Industry)\n52892WA Advanced Diploma of Electrical and Instrumentation (E&I) Engineering in Mining\n52883WA Advanced Diploma of Applied Electrical Engineering (Electrical Systems)\nUET60222 Advanced Diploma of ESI – Power Systems (Australia & New Zealand Only)\nOnline – Bachelor of Science (Electrical Engineering)\n\nTo learn more about tuition fees\, please click here. \nAbout the presenter\n \nEmeritus Professor Akhtar Kalam \nBSc\, BScEng\, MS\, PhD\, FIET\, CEng\, FAIE\, FIEAust\, CPEng\, NER\, APEC Engineer\, IntPE(Aus)\, PEV\, MCIGRE\, Life Senior Member of IEEE. \nProfessor Akhtar Kalam is a supervisor of EIT’s Doctoral students.
