Practical Introduction to the Safe Operation of High & Low Voltage Switchgear (S9)

S9

This course is designed specifically for individuals with little or no previous experience in high voltage switching. It focuses on the practical (hands-on) element of switching and is predominately workshop rather than classroom based.

S9 Course

Course content

  • Operational and safety features of switchgear
  • High voltage safety rules
  • Key safes and multihasp systems
  • Test equipment for proving dead
  • Operational procedures
  • Practical exercises on a range of circuits and equipment types

Who should attend?

Personnel who require practical (hands-on) experience of switching and issuing of safety documents on high and low voltage power systems up to and including 15kV. This course may be undertaken by candidates in order to gain practical experience on the operation of HV switchgear prior to attending a limited or full authorisation course.

Certifications

This course does not include an assessment. Candidates who attend this course will receive The Faraday Centre attendance certificate.
