HV Switching and System Control Refresher

Delegates are required to have previously completed ASET’s exclusive City & Guilds 0672 HV Switching and System Control or ASET’s HV Switching & System Control Refresher course within the previous 4 years.

• An understanding of the Health and Safety procedures on HV/LV electrical systems.
• Ability to interpret the operational requirements of system control on electrical distribution systems.
• Illustrate an understanding of pre-prepared switching and isolation systems.

• Safety Regulations Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974, The Electricity at Work Regulations 1993
• Dangers of electricity
• Permit to work systems
• Generation of switching programs
• Generator operation

Delegates will undertake a multiple-choice examination paper to demonstrate they have achieved the key learning outcomes detailed above.

Safety footwear, coveralls, safety glasses and gloves.

Why ASET’s High Voltage Training differs from that of its competitors in Scotland:

• ASET’s High Voltage equipment consists of a full range of HV and LV switchboards which can either be remotely switched through our Electric Control Panel or locally at the boards themselves.
• The primary electrical supply comes from two of ASET’s Power Generator and VSD (Variable Synchronised Drives) which allows delegates the opportunity to synchronise and load share during training exercises
• ASET has two fully rated Transformers which feed between HV to LV boards
• ASET’s High Voltage technology and equipment is the most up-to-date consisting of Schneider fully rated Circuit Vacuum Breakers on the HV board and fully rated Air Circuit Breakers on our LV boards
• ASET training personnel take delegates through extensive training and assessment on all HV and LV boards using live electrical power which is simulated for safety reasons to 6.6Kv. This also includes delegates creating suitable switching and isolations.

This is a classroom based course with practical training exercises underpinning knowledge gained.
