Standby Power Systems: Tools and Techniques
Electrical and Power Engineering|3 days|Classroom or live online
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through electrical safety procedure and circuit breaker operation on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: electrical incidents are among the few workplace risks that are immediately fatal, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with condition monitoring, substation operation and cable fault location in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review condition monitoring and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the SANS wiring code
- Spot where substation operation is failing before it becomes a finding
- Improve cable fault location within their own organisation
- Put protection relays on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
What the course covers
- Electrical safety procedure
- Circuit breaker operation
- Condition monitoring
- Substation operation
- Cable fault location
- Protection relays
- Insulation testing
Who should attend
