Topic: Utility Scale Transformer Training Workshop at Tacoma Power Date: March 23rd, 2017 Time: 7:30am – 4:30 PM Place: Tacoma Power, 3628 S 35th Street, Tacoma WA Class is in the Tacoma Public Utilities building, Administration Building South Ground Floor, ABS G5 See attached for parking and building access requirements. UTILITY-SCALE TRANSFORMER WORKSHOP Schedule: 07:30am – 08:00am Registration, Breakfast, Coffee, Networking 08:00am – 08:15am Opening, Instructor Introduction 08:15am – 10:00am Part 1, Transformer Design and Design Parameters 10:00am – 10:30am Morning Break 10:30am – 12:00pm Part 2, Transformer Design and Design Parameters/ Transformer Manufacturing Process 12:00pm – 01:00 pm Lunch - Provided 01:00pm – 02:15pm Part 3, Transformer Manufacturing Process 02:15pm – 02:45pm Afternoon Break 02:45pm – 04:30pm Part 4, Preparation of Transformer Specification Workshop: Utility-scale transformers are custom-built for specific transmission and distribution system requirements. There are many different design approaches, materials and manufacturing processes that can be used to produce utility-scale transformers. These differences can result in varying levels of system performance, power transfer efficiency, fault tolerance, equipment life, cost and the like. This one-day workshop will provide instruction on the many options available for the design and manufacture of utility-scale transformers, including how to write transformers specification to purchase reliable, economic and least life cycle cost transformer. It will provide insight into specifying the design and manufacture of transformers that are most appropriate for specific system requirements. A sampling of subject matter to be covered in this workshop is provided at the end of this announcement. Upon completion of the workshop, participants will receive a certificate for eight PDHs. Instructor: Ronnie Minhaz Mr. Minhaz is the president and founder of Transformer Consulting Services, Inc. He has more than ten years’ experience in the specification and design of utility-scale transformers. Prior to forming his own company, he worked as a Transformer Design Engineer at Pauwels Canada (manufacturer), an Equipment Engineer at SNC Lava Lin (ECPM), an Equipment Engineer at Enmax Power (utility), and a Lead Substation Engineer at McGregor Construction (substation construction). Mr. Minhaz holds a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Manitoba, Canada, and is a registered professional engineer in the province of Alberta, Canada. He is an active member of IEEE and IEEE Power & Energy Society. He has held various IEEE section-level leadership positions. www.tc-servicesinc.com Cost and Registration There is a fee for this class. It covers the cost of the instructor, refreshments and lunch.

Co-sponsored by: IEEE Seattle Section & PES The IEEE Seattle YP has formed a local partnership with StartupGrind; a global startup community designed to educate, inspire, and connect entrepreneurs. Under this partnership, IEEE members pay a reduced fee for local Startup Grind events. However, the IEEE is further subsidizing the cost to only $5/person for the first 10 registrants with a PROMOCODE below. Register here PROMO CODE: ieeetix Jordan Ritter is an accomplished software architect and technical entrepreneur. He currently serves as founder and CEO of Atlas Informatics in Seattle. The company recently raised $20.7 million from a group of investors including Microsoft, Nathan Myhrvold and Aspect Ventures. In 1999, Jordan became one of the original members of Napster, developing the technology with Shawn Fanning before the company was officially funded in August. Until his departure in November of 2000, Jordan primarily served as Chief Server Architect and was responsible for the server backend software and infrastructure, helping lead the technology to support 60 million users worldwide in less than a year. In 2001 Jordan co-founded Cloudmark with Vipul Ved Prakash, building the world's first commercial machine-learning, reputation-based anti-spam platform, which today protects about 13% of all email inboxes on the Internet.
