About This Course
This highly informative training course emphasises on the new technologies of medium
and high voltage circuit breakers. One of the
salient innovations is the elimination of
sulphur hexafluoride gas to the new green gas
for grid, in line with the world’s effort to reduce
the carbon footprint. It will also provide delegates a solid understanding on the safe use of
circuit breakers, switchgears and associated
equipment that requires correct initial selection, operation and maintenance. New vacuum
circuit breaker technologies will be discussed
to enhance the safety and secured operation
of the electrical installation.On completion, delegates will be equipped or
will have enhanced skills to ensure that circuit
breakers and switchgear are installed,
operated safely and maintained in a fashion
that ensures safe and stable and continuous
operation.
Who Should Attend The Course
This training course will benefit all
levels of professional in an in an electrical installation. It will enable them
to understand the importance of safe
operations of circuit breakers and switchgears.This training course will utilise a
variety of proven adult training
techniques to ensure maximum
understanding, comprehension
and retention of the information
presented. This includes presentation
and discussion of latest videos
and circuit breaker.
