  • The importance of the maintenance of Electrical Equipment

Target Audience

The Electrical and Instrumentation training course is designed to provide a practical insight for personnel who interface with electrical systems in the Oil and Gas, Minerals Processing, Mining and Heavy Industries, or work in the engineering consulting industry servicing these clients.

It is specifically tailored to suit those who have a basic understanding of electrical principals, and require further knowledge of electrical and instrument systems to more effectively manage their work and where necessary execute multi-discipline projects. Personnel who should attend are:

 

  • Project Professionals and Engineers
  • Facilities Engineers
  • Process and Chemical Engineers
  • Mechanical Engineers
  • Maintenance Technicians

It is also a useful introduction for inexperienced Electrical and I&C engineers (i.e. graduates and the like) to gain an understanding of the practical issues that they will face in their careers.

Training Methods

This BTS training course will combine presentations with interactive practical exercises, supported by video materials, activities and case studies. Delegates will be encouraged to participate actively in relating their particular protection requirements at their workplace.

There will be adequate time given for group discussion during and at the end of each session, including detailed case studies and anecdotes on based on the subject matter and the facilitator’s own experience in the field.
