Protection Systems for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Protection Systems for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through switchgear maintenance and lockout and tagout 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 electrical safety procedure, standby generation and transformer maintenance in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review electrical safety procedure and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the Occupational Health and Safety Act
- Bring standby generation into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of transformer maintenance rather than escalating it
- Make a decision about circuit breaker operation without waiting for a specialist
