Leading Circuit Breaker Operation Teams

Electrical and Power Engineering|3 days|Classroom or live online

This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers protection relays and insulation testing from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because maintenance teams are increasingly expected to diagnose equipment they did not commission, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with switchgear maintenance, motor control centres and electrical fault analysis in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Explain switchgear maintenance to someone who does not do the work, measured against recognised arc flash assessment practice
  • Make a decision about motor control centres without waiting for a specialist
  • Take ownership of electrical fault analysis rather than escalating it
  • Spot where circuit breaker operation is failing before it becomes a finding
