Introduction

To successfully inspect and test electrical equipment, Electrical personnel must first fully understand the technology of the electrical equipment. After the successful start-up and subsequent continued operation, electrical equipment requires periodic inspection and testing.

This will ensure the electrical equipment operates correctly so that production is maximized in a safe, cost effective and efficient manner.

Delegates are encouraged to raise queries both during and at any time after attending the course and are also asked to bring with them any technical issues that they may have.

 

Objective

Participants attending this program will:

Return to their respective organizations equipped with new or refreshed skills to ensure that electrical equipment is inspected, tested and operated in safe and a fashion that ensures reduced costs. On successful completion of this course, participants will have:

  • A better understanding of maintenance purposes and types.
  • A better understanding of inspection and testing methods
  • A better understanding of the updated electrical condition monitoring.
  • A better understanding of troubleshooting procedures
  • An improved capability in testing equipment
  • A better understanding of safety issues.
  • A refreshed outlook on reading electrical drawings
  • A refreshed awareness of electrical safety concerns
Audience

This course is intended for Electrical Engineers, Electrical Supervisors and Electrical Technicians engaged in the maintenance, inspection and testing of Electrical Equipment. Because the methods and examples are generic, personnel from all industries will benefit. Participants require a good understanding of electricity and magnetism and possess some relevant experience.
