Maintaining Electrical Systems - LVA, Distribution, Instrumentation and Building Services

This course will provide training on how to inspect and operate the electrical systems (such as the distribution equipment) at a MWC worksite; check the calibration of the level and temperature instrumentation; inspect the Kiosk building services, including the fire alarm system and the intruder alarm system; inspect the non-architectural lighting.

Description

Key Topic Areas

Training will cover all manufacturers’ recommended inspection, routine and reactive maintenance requirements, safe isolation and manual operation, where available.

The course will split into a classroom and a worksite session and will include:

Classroom Session

  • Familiarisation with electrical design and on-site layout;
  • Locating electrical design information;
  • Familiarisation with statutory requirements – inspection, competency;
  • Discussion of key hazards and controls.

Worksite Session

  • Operation of:
    • Low Voltage Assemblies;
    • Distribution Equipment;
    • Kiosk Building Services (including Fire Alarm, Intruder Alarm);
    • Level and temperature instrumentation;
    • External lighting including controls;
  • Visual Inspection of:
    • Low Voltage Assemblies;
    • Distribution Equipment;
    • Kiosk Building Services (including Fire Alarm, Intruder Alarm);
    • Level and temperature instrumentation;
    • External lighting, including controls for signs of obvious signs of deterioration/concern (excludes architectural lighting);
  • Calibration Checks for:
    • Level Instrumentation (ultrasonic and radar);
    • Temperature Instruments (ATU).

Outcomes

On completion of the training, Delegates are expected to be:

  • Able to operate electrical systems within the worksite;
  • Able to inspect equipment and understand common signs of deterioration;
  • Familiar with and understand the electrical infrastructure of a worksite;
  • Able to check calibration of temperature and level instrumentation.

Competency/Skills Requirements

Before attending the training session, Delegates are expected to complete:

Before attending the training, Delegates are also expected to:

  • Be qualified electricians;
  • Have competency in Explosive Atmospheres certification (CompEx)
  • Have experience working with similar plant and equipment

Those undertaking statutory inspections are expected to already be qualified and competent to do so.
