This course is designed for electrical personnel responsible for identification/spiking and proving dead of HV power cables. It provides instruction in the practical, technical and safety aspects of identifying electrical power cables and their subsequent spiking to ensure the safety of personnel required to work upon these cables. (Note: this is not a cable fault location course).

This course provides technical information about the design, construction, maintenance and the significance of various site tests that are carried out on high voltage transformers. It also covers practical methods of transformer testing including routine tests for post-fault and preventive maintenance.

This course outlines different types of earth electrode systems used in conjunction with high and low voltage networks Including methods of testing earth electrode systems, earth resistivity and subsequent interpretation of test results. (Note: this is not a design course).

This course covers the theoretical and practical principles of pressure testing on high voltage distribution systems up to and including 15kV. It covers the different insulating material characteristics as well as the methods used to enable the pressure testing of high voltage equipment, including cables, switchgear, transformers and motors. The course strongly emphasises safety requirements and interpretation of test results.

This course covers the theoretical and practical principles of sheath testing on high voltage distribution systems, with emphasis placed upon safety requirements and interpretation of test results.
