Industrial electrical maintenance – Course Description:

This industrial electrical maintenance course is designed to enable candidates who have a small amount of electrical knowledge to gain recognised qualifications and skills to enable them to enter an industrial environment and work as a industrial electrician. The industrial electrical maintenance course will include a large amount of practical, enabling the candidate to install, fault find, design and wiring up control panels, using a variety of different methods.

Industrial electrical maintenance course Aims

The aim of the industrial electrical maintenance course is to provide solid foundations upon which the participant will be able to build and develop. Emphasis is given to providing the necessary skills, which will allow the participant to carry out routine electrical tasks. It is also made clear that a participant needs to identify and know their own limitations, allowing tasks to be carried out in a safe manner, not giving rise to danger.

If your looking for industrial electrician training this course is for you.

Level 3 Certification

Level 3 National Certification is included with the first 10 days of the course, it enables the Candidate to identify the principles applied to, the processes involved and the components used in the construction of Electrical Panels for Engineering Applications and, the techniques used in inspection, testing and commissioning of electrical panels and associated equipment. You will gain knowledge and be assessed in the following areas.

Understand the relevant statutory and non-statutory legislation associated with design, construction and application of Electro Technical Panels;
Understand safe systems of working on Electro Technical Panels;
Understand how to interpret drawings, diagrams, specifications and manufacturers data to locate, position, install and connect wiring systems, components, wiring enclosures and equipment;
Understand how to select the appropriate tools and equipment to carry out the panel build;
Understand how to interpret drawings, diagrams, specifications and manufacturers’ data and to select appropriate working methods and procedures using tools, equipment and instruments to refurbish, maintain and repair electro technical panels;

Understand how to select appropriate working methods and use tools, equipment and instruments for the testing and commissioning of electro technical panels.

Summary

After completion of the 2 weeks of industrial electrical maintenance training, the candidate will have obtained a Level 3 qualification, within the electrical wiring sector, this qualification is ideally suited for a candidate wishing to enter the Industrial Maintenance Electrical environment., or start a career as an industrial electrician.

Course Reviews

What a fantastic course. I have been a maintenance engineer for many years but have learnt so much more that I didn't know. The course Tutor Alistair was brilliant. He was so passionate and knowledgeable about all the subjects. I cant recommend this course enough for anyone wanting to advance their knowledge. I am already looking at other courses.
