Switchgear Maintenance for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers switchgear maintenance and condition monitoring from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because electrical incidents are among the few workplace risks that are immediately fatal, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with substation operation, arc flash assessment and circuit breaker operation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put substation operation on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against recognised arc flash assessment practice
- Make a decision about arc flash assessment without waiting for a specialist
- Review circuit breaker operation and say plainly whether it is working
- Explain load flow analysis to someone who does not do the work
