Note to Clients

Why ASET's High Voltage Training differs from that of it's competitors in Scotland:

Our fully rated HV/LV switchboards, consisting of HV VCB's and masterpack LV ACB's are supplied by our two generators and VSD's offering synchronising and load sharing capabilities from our installed remote Electrical Control Desk , there local control facilities on our boards. The variety of interlocks during operation will be fully demonstrated. Successful completion of the course can greatly assist delegates in final assessment for authorisation levels at the work site.
