Complex power systems using LED, Moving Light, and Dimming Technology can have significant advanced power issues. This course will draw on experiences from our Rigging Gaffers to illustrate why these problems occur, when to expect them, and how to avoid them. Specific topics will include inductance, capacitance, power factor, harmonics, triplen harmonics, and system reactance. This class covers topics listed on the body of knowledge for the ETCP Entertainment Electrician Certification Exam.
