Fundamentals of Circuit Breaker Operation
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Circuit Breaker Operation is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through power factor correction and protection relays without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because electrical incidents are among the few workplace risks that are immediately fatal, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with insulation testing, condition monitoring and load flow analysis in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about insulation testing without waiting for a specialist, measured against IEC standards
- Take ownership of condition monitoring rather than escalating it
- Explain load flow analysis to someone who does not do the work
- Review cable fault location and say plainly whether it is working
