The program is tailored to equip participants with skills to develop, evaluate, and improve electrical and instrumentation systems for a wide range of industries.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

• Understand the basic concepts and components of electrical and instrumentation systems.
• Interpret and create electrical and instrumentation drawings and schematics.
• Apply design standards and specifications in industrial projects.
• Develop control strategies using instrumentation and electrical systems.
• Integrate electrical and instrumentation designs into automated systems.

This course is ideal for:

• Electrical and Instrumentation Engineers
• Design Engineers and Technicians
• Maintenance and Operations Personnel
• Project Engineers and Managers
• Professionals looking to enhance their knowledge of electrical and instrumentation design

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.
