Strategic Circuit Breaker Operation

Electrical and Power Engineering|5 days|Classroom or live online

Strategic Circuit Breaker Operation looks at this work from the level at which it is resourced and defended. The focus is on electrical fault analysis, circuit breaker operation and how both connect to what the organisation is actually trying to achieve. This matters at the strategic level because maintenance teams are increasingly expected to diagnose equipment they did not commission. Delegates leave able to work confidently with variable speed drives, standby generation and earthing and bonding in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Take ownership of variable speed drives rather than escalating it, measured against recognised arc flash assessment practice
Make a decision about standby generation without waiting for a specialist
Improve earthing and bonding within their own organisation
Spot where protection relays is failing before it becomes a finding
