The future of buildings - how BMS can future proof your investments
This seminar looks at the trends that are shaping the future of buildings, starting from Big Data to Open Protocols. With over 50 billion devices expected to be connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) worldwide by 2020, connectivity is fast becoming a key focus in systems.

Analytics for buildings
This seminar offers an overview of what drives current facility management needs, the subsequent solutions presently on offer, and how Analytics can take it a step further as a managed service. An operative account of the technology is covered, followed by tangible examples on the benefits of implementing this technology.

Smart Buildings – How IoT is shaping the built environment
This CPD seminar looks at the subject of Smart Buildings and the way in which the Internet of Things” (or IoT) is affecting the built environment with increased levels of connectivity within (and between) buildings, how building management will be a key aspect of future developments, and how the power of cloud computing is revolutionising the way in which use apps, analytics and services in buildings. We will briefly look at the subject of cybersecurity, protecting measures against threads that come with new technologies and finally we will touch on considerations when looking at IoT in Buildings.

Cybersecurity in Building Management Systems
This CPD seminar looks at the subject of Cyber Security in Building Management Systems. It’s a subject which has taken on ever greater significance since the advent of the “Internet of Things” (or IoT), as the increased connectivity of devices and systems inevitably leads to increased risk of Cyber-attacks. We will look at the types and effects of attacks, some real-world examples, and some analysis of the associated costs. We will navigate through the concepts and mechanisms of cyber security, some of the features to watch out for when choosing system components, and then get into specifics of how Building Management Systems can still bring the benefits of open systems, whilst being hardened to the threat of Cyber Attacks as much as possible.
Customer Architectures - Data Centres
In a world where projects are wanted faster more competitively with excellent operational performance. This course will investigate customer architectures in a data centre context and how MV/LV powertrain, IT, Cooling, back up generation and software applications can be brought together and optimised to bring project benefits capital expenditure and operational performance.
An overview of primary distribution switchgear and its construction
This seminar provides an overview of primary distribution switchgear and its construction.

An overview of secondary distribution switchgear, its construction, and typical protection used
This seminar provides an overview of secondary distribution switchgear, its construction, and typical protection used.

An overview of medium voltage switchgear
This seminar provides an overview of MV switchgear, and the types of components into the switchgear cubicle. The presentation also includes internal arc and how that affects the design and safety of operators.

An overview of medium voltage distribution networks
This seminar provides an overview of MV distribution networks, and which type of switchgear and appropriate protection that could be used.

Eco design regulations of the EU
This seminar examines the transformer evolution and design, and answers questions raised by EU Eco regulations. It addresses the Eco issues affecting the whole supply chain from manufacturer to end user.

Transformers, design and basic concepts
An introduction to transformers; types, designs, construction and maintenance, as well as why Eco Regulations affect transformer design

MV/LV network coordination
This seminar provides an understanding of the systems used in UK networks. It will provide information on the types of protection available, their limitations and the issues around grading across a distribution transformer with the LV network.
Metering - a guide on how to comply with section 6 of the Scottish building regulations
This presentation guide will help customers to better understand how they can comply to the legislations that focus on metering energy use in new and existing non-domestic buildings, in relation to Section 6.

Metering & monitoring systems for power reliability & availability
This seminar focuses on trends in the market as well as the effects on power quality issues on sites. It will cover the standards and regulations that apply to electricity supply and provides guidance on metering devices and monitoring software that applies to this application.

A guide to selecting the right meter for your application
This seminar aims to make the audience aware of the importance of metering and how to select the right meters for your application.

Part L and metering
This presentation guide will assist delegates to better understand how they can comply on the legislations that focus on metering energy use in new and existing non-domestic buildings, in relation to Part L.
Power factor correction and application

18th Edition Wiring Regulations overview
Review some of the main changes in the regulations, understand the technology of Residual Current Devices (RCDs), Arc Fault Detection Devices (AFDDs) and Surge Protection Devices (SPDs) where to use them and their main benefits.

18th Edition focussing on Surge Protection Devices
This seminar is focused on the IET Wiring Regulations 18th Edition BS 7671:2018 and the specific impacts of Surge Protection Devices.

Electric Vehicle Charging
With new government proposals changing the way we will consider transportation needs and infrastructure in the future, there are growing questions around type of charging point to install and whether power will be sufficient as the demand grows.
How to ensure a healthy healthcare power system
This discusses the principle standards and regulations surrounding machinery safety with particular regard to functional safety requirements. We look at these standards in the context of current EU legislation as it applies now, pre-Brexit. Then we take a deeper look at Brexit itself in relation to machinery safety and discuss some of the general implications of operating outside the EU and what this means for manufacturers, suppliers and end users. Finally, we take a look at the way ahead, post-Brexit, and discuss the future implications and potential actions that we can take to mitigate the effects of operating in a different market and legislative environment.
