This Troubleshooting & Maintenance of Electrical Equipment training course has been developed to assist Electrical personnel to be able to understand, maintain and troubleshoot common problems and some uncommon problems, within modern and existing Electrical Equipment. The training course will also provide delegates with an overview and understanding of a variety of different Electrical Equipment and systems.
In the 21st Century, Electrical equipment within an Electrical Power system plays an important role in the transmission and distribution of electrical power. The equipment needs to be operated and maintained in a safe manner securing continuity of supply to consumers, whilst at the same time, remaining safe and reliable at all times.
This training course will be of extreme benefit to Electrical personnel, who need to maintain their skills and competence and also, for newly qualified Electrical personnel, to achieve the skills required to Troubleshoot and Maintain Electrical Equipment.
This Energy Training Centre training course will focus on and include the following:
- How to carry out the correct maintenance on plant?
- The Correct Application of Fault-finding and Practical Techniques to achieve Fault-finding
- Focus on the Correct Techniques When Maintaining a variety of Electrical Systems
- Earthing Systems and the Need for Correct Maintenance
- Safe Isolation Techniques
- Transformer Maintenance
This Troubleshooting & Maintenance of Electrical Equipment training course is designed to increase the awareness of the required diagnostic skills of engineers and maintenance teams on Modern Power systems. The training course will revolve around maintenance, troubleshooting and fault finding techniques used in today's modern systems.
At the end of this training course, you will learn to:
- Elaborate on a variety of Electrical Faults
- Discuss Electrical Fault Finding Procedures
- Examine Maintenance and Condition Monitoring
- Describe the Function of a Transformer
- Describe the Need for an Efficient Earthing System
- Interpret Cabling Systems and Fault-finding Techniques
In this training course, goals of each participant are discussed to ensure their needs are fulfilled, as far as possible. Formal delivery, group work, short videos and case studies are used throughout the week. Questions are encouraged throughout, particularly at the daily wrap up sessions. This provides opportunities for participants to discuss specific issues and, if possible, find appropriate solutions. General discussions are employed to highlight particular points and to illustrate particular conditions.
This Troubleshooting & Maintenance of Electrical Equipment training course will allow delegates to interact and gain shared experiences of others along with:
- Understand the Legal requirements for Electrical maintenance
