Standby Power Systems for Small and Medium Enterprises
Electrical and Power Engineering|3 days|Classroom or live online
Standby Power Systems for Small and Medium Enterprises takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including transformer maintenance, circuit breaker operation and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because maintenance teams are increasingly expected to diagnose equipment they did not commission, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with motor control centres, electrical safety procedure and electrical fault analysis in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring motor control centres into line with current good practice, measured against the SANS wiring code
- Take ownership of electrical safety procedure rather than escalating it
- Review electrical fault analysis and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where insulation testing is failing before it becomes a finding
