Renewable Energy Integration for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Renewable Energy Integration for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through insulation testing and cable fault location without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because ageing plant is being asked to carry loads it was never specified for, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with arc flash assessment, power factor correction and switchgear maintenance in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring arc flash assessment into line with current good practice, measured against the SANS wiring code
- Put power factor correction on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Make a decision about switchgear maintenance without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of standby generation rather than escalating it
