High Voltage Switching Courses

POSTED: November 3 2014

We have been working hard recently to update our nationally recognised high voltage switching courses.

Our 5 day course has been updated in line with industry procedures and workplace practices to allow students to experience both a ‘control room’ scenario as well as hands-on switching in the field. As part of their theoretical component, students will utilise a customised electronic and interactive network diagram to simulate the isolation and restoration of high voltage equipment.

The practical phase involves using a range of functioning and interconnected high voltage pieces of equipment, that provide real switching in a simulated and safe environment. The interconnected extra low voltage system, between the switchgear, provides active test points and accurate responses from the equipment, enabling the students to effectively carry out numerous switching programs and scenarios set by our instructors.

We now offer our industry-leading HVSO training from four state-of-the-art practical facilities in Brisbane, Perth, Melbourne and Adelaide, and are currently taking expressions of interest for Gladstone. As always, we can also bring our training to you and deliver onsite on your own equipment. For more information or to book now, please contact us.

Best eeha course done so far
The trainer was an extremely knowledgeable instructor. His delivery of the course was outstanding and he is very friendly and approachable.

Really enjoyed it, teacher was so good! Really approachable and passionate, it is such a dangerous task and I feel like I have been given amazing training to feel confident and ready to start switching. Thank you very much couldn’t recommend a better teacher.
I have left the course feeling a lot more confident in my abilities to complete my EEHA responsibilities at site. There was a lot of content but our trainer delivered it in a way that was not overwhelming.

Good class engagement with all participants. Great subject matter knowledge. Overall wonderful experience.
Teacher was excellent, very knowledgeable, very personable, didn’t shut people down. Absolute 10/10. When training people to be an assessor he should be the model they learn how to be like.
Fantastic course content led by a great teacher. Very happy, and I feel that I have learnt a lot in the week.
