Circuit Breaker Operation Masterclass
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 protection relays, transformer maintenance 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 ageing plant is being asked to carry loads it was never specified for. Delegates leave able to work confidently with insulation testing, switchgear maintenance and power factor correction in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review insulation testing and say plainly whether it is working, measured against recognised arc flash assessment practice
- Bring switchgear maintenance into line with current good practice
- Spot where power factor correction is failing before it becomes a finding
- Make a decision about circuit breaker operation without waiting for a specialist
