Fundamentals of Earthing and Bonding
Electrical and Power Engineering|2 days|Classroom or live online
Fundamentals of Earthing and Bonding is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through variable speed drives and electrical safety procedure without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because maintenance teams are increasingly expected to diagnose equipment they did not commission, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with circuit breaker operation, substation operation and cable fault location in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where circuit breaker operation is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the Occupational Health and Safety Act
- Put substation operation on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Make a decision about cable fault location without waiting for a specialist
- Explain lockout and tagout to someone who does not do the work
