MARK V, MARK VIE and Gas Turbine
Course Description
Working with General Electrical “GE” control systems and gas turbine at facilities, attendees in this “hands-on” course will learn the main differences between control system series “MARK V,VI,VIE” , how to fix and troubleshooting GE control system MARK V& VIE and the basics of Gas turbine main component, theory of operation, start up and shutdown sequence and unit operation protection system. This course will bring the students up with the latest technologies of general electrical control systems and the main keys of operation, maintenance and troubleshooting Knowledge, transfer for field maintenance experience of MARK VI/MARK VIE,GTs, Students’ specific needs and concerns are also addressed during the class so that they can go back to their workplace and immediately apply what they’ve learned. This course can also be adopted as part of a company’s regular Qualified I&C Worker program.

This seminar is designed for anyone who needs to sharpen their control system troubleshooting skills in order to increase efficiencies and uptime at their power station or gas station. If you work with gas turbine and GE control system at industrial plants, whether as general maintenance personnel, in cross-training programs, an electrician, or an engineer, you will find this course extremely useful. As long as you work with control system and troubleshoot problems, this course is for you.

The program will be interactive and practical. There will be work in groups and pairs as well as individual exercises and everyone will get an opportunity to discuss their issues with control system and troubleshoot common faults and failure issues. Each day will end with time to produce an action plan for delegates continuing development.
