Course Introduction

This is a practical training program in electrical maintenance, focusing on methods and techniques used in maintaining electrical equipment in industrial companies. Electrical equipment covered in this training program include switchgear and circuit breakers, transformers, motors, generators, capacitors, lighting circuits, protection relays, battery systems and other equipment.

The training program is designed to cover the most commonly performed electrical tasks a maintenance technician faces in their job every day. For the novice or experienced electrician, this training Program provides a practical and real world systematic approach to electrical maintenance.


Course objective

  • Understand the role of regular periodic inspection and planned maintenance in ensuring safe operation and longer life of electrical equipment.
  • Perform the   routine tests on electrical equipment including insulation resistance test (Megger) and contact resistance test.
  • Use the partial discharge test in diagnosing the insulation of cables and busbars.
  • Apply the dielectric insulation testing of transformer oil and performing Dissolved Gas Analysis tests.
  • Be familiar with the procedures of preventive maintenance of switchgear and circuit breakers.
  • Identify the hazards in operating and carrying out maintenance work in different parts of electrical substations.
  • Be aware of the importance of record keeping.
