Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of high voltage switching operations. It covers the legislation and standards of high voltage switching operations; the risk management and control as well as the proper approach to high voltage-safe systems of work, permit types and permit procedures; operating local high voltage and low voltage switchgear; developing high voltage switchgear program; controlling permit to work operations; performing switching to a switching program; coordinating and directing switching program; and working safely near live electrical apparatus. During this interactive course, participants will learn the access procedures to work on or near electrical network infrastructure; the HV field switching operation and power system substation switching operation to a given schedule; developing high voltage switching schedule; coordinating power systems permit procedures; directing power system switching schedules; and solving the energy supply network equipment problems in a professional manner.
