Technical Committee Program Chair (TCPC) Report

2. 2016 IEEE PES General Meeting Boston, MA July 17-21, 2016
Meeting is next week
2500+ attendees
200+ Technical Sessions
800+ Papers
NPEC will be hosting a “panel session”, this is our first program at the PES GM in many years
Modeling and Analysis of Open-Phase Faults (OPF): This session will focus on modeling and analysis of open-phase faults (OPF) at nuclear power generating stations. It is intended to explore the underlying electrical theory related to OPF modeling and analysis rather than focusing on specific “solutions” for OPF conditions.
6 Speakers and 8 Panelists
Tuesday July 20, 3-5pm
