Course description
Safe Access to Electrical Panels
The growing pressure upon company managers to ensure personnel are operating in a safe manner suggests that some level of basic training is required. This course helps raise the level of electrical safety awareness for those required to access low voltage electrical panels or enclosures, for example machine and process operators.
Using a presentation and practical approach, it looks at key aspects of electrical safety in relation to electrical panel enclosure. It examines protective device resetting, process adjustment/configuration and taking readings, as well as the requirements of current legislation.
