Presentation Topic:  Best Practices for CEPs in Critical Environments

The presentation will review best practices from an operational perspective for CEPs.  Too often as design engineers we focus on energy efficiency and code compliance, but we may not have the full perspective of the operator.  We will review best practices that designers should consider as well as single points of failure that are often overlooked.
