Call for Presentations

The IEEE Insulated Conductors Committee is issuing a Call for Presentations for its Spring 2001 meeting in Dearborn, MI. The ICC is an international forum on the design, testing and application of electrical cable systems, its insulation and jacketing systems, and associated accessories. The ICC also prepares and maintains standards and guides for the IEEE covering a wide variety of subjects related to electrical cable systems.

ICC Spring 2001 seeks presentations about significant contributions to the broad field of electrical cable systems. Presentations are invited which are concerned with both theory and practice which fall into one of the following areas:

Presentations are limited to 15-20 minutes (which includes a suggested 5 minute question and answer period).

Each presenter is required to submit an abstract of 100-150 words. These abstracts will be posted on the ICC website and will be used by attendees to plan their sessions.

Presenters are encouraged to make their commitment and submit their abstract as soon as possible but no later than April 10, 2001 to one of the following Chairman (as appropriate)

Subcommittee A - Cable Construction and Design - Allen MacPhail, a.macphail@ieee.org

Subcommittee B - Accessories: Bob Gear, Underground Systems Inc., r.b.gear@ieee.org

Subcommittee C - Cable Systems: John H. Cooper, Power Delivery Consultants, j.h.cooper@ieee.org

Subcommittee D - Station, Control and Utilization Cable: Kent W. Brown, k.w.brown@ieee.org

Presenters are reminded that in accordance with the ICC Guidelines, the following must be observed in both the slides and in the documents submitted for inclusion in the Minutes of the ICC:

Finally, presenters are reminded to make slides and overheads clear and concise. Less is almost always better and please LARGE FONTS! Those considering computer-based presentations should be sure to read the following notice.

The Minutes of the ICC will include the following based on your presentation:

Please contact the Subcommittee Chairmen listed above for more guidelines regarding your presentation.

Computer-Based Presentations

As with previous meetings, the ICC will provide a computer, computer projection system, overhead projector and slide projector to facilitate Presentations during the Opening and Subcommittee sessions.

Though ICC has provided a computer in the past, some presenters have preferred to use their own machines or had presentations too large to be transferred on a floppy. We observed that there was considerable delay when computers had to be swapped and in some cases, the computers have been unable to communicate with the projection equipment. We are asking that all presentations be preloaded onto the ICC computer. This will greatly improve the flow of the meetings. For those presentations too large to be transferred on a floppy, a 250 MB Zip Drive and a CD will also be available.

There will be preload and test sessions Sunday afternoon from 2-4 pm and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 7-8 am to enable you to transfer your presentation to the ICC computer hard drive (which will speed the presentations) and to view your slides with the equipment that will be used during the Subcommittee meetings.

Make slides clear and concise. Less is almost always better! Use LARGE FONTS! Visual aids can make or break a presentation and we want your presentation to be a success!  

At the Dearborn meeting we will provide:

At the end of the meeting, unless a presenter specifically requests otherwise, copies of the electronic presentations will be given to the respective Subcommittee for inclusion in the minutes. The files will be deleted from the computer used at the meeting before it is released.
