Advanced Cable Fault Location
Electrical and Power Engineering|5 days|Classroom or live online
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into substation operation, motor control centres and the judgement calls that sit outside recognised arc flash assessment practice. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because electrical incidents are among the few workplace risks that are immediately fatal. Delegates leave able to work confidently with power factor correction, standby generation and cable fault location in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about power factor correction without waiting for a specialist, measured against recognised arc flash assessment practice
- Spot where standby generation is failing before it becomes a finding
- Bring cable fault location into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of arc flash assessment rather than escalating it
