Electrical Maintenance Training Online

Electrical Maintenance Training Online

You can access the live online training through our web-based platform from your own computer. You can see and hear the instructor and see his screen live.

You can interact and ask questions. The cost of the training also includes 7 days of email mentoring with the instructor.

This 12-Hour live online Electrical Maintenance Training Online course is designed for electrical maintenance personnel working in utility, industrial, commercial and institutional facilities.

Preventive maintenance is the key to reducing accidents, saving lives, and avoiding costly breakdowns and work stoppages. This latest Edition has been updated to reflect the latest industry developments and safety strategies. Our Electrical Maintenance training course is your best guide for creating and administering an effective Electrical Preventive Maintenance (EPM) program.

A well-administered EPM program is the surest way to reduce accidents, save lives, and minimize costly breakdowns and unplanned shutdowns of production equipment Learn about preventive maintenance for industrial and commercial electrical systems and equipment, and learn test procedures you can implement at once.

Our Electrical Maintenance Training course is an in-depth examination of the most recent standards governing Electrical Maintenance Practices, NFPA 70b - Recommended Practices For Electrical Equipment Maintenance and CSA Z463 Workplace Electrical Equipment Maintenance Practices. These recommended practices apply to preventive maintenance for electrical, electronic, and communication systems and equipment installed in industrial, commercial and institutional power systems.

This Electrical Maintenance Training course is designed to alert electrical maintenance personnel in utility, industrial, commercial and institutional facilities to the latest North American Electrical Maintenance and Testing Specifications.

These specifications cover the suggested field tests and inspections that are available to assess the suitability for continued service and reliability of electrical power distribution equipment and systems.

The purpose of these specifications is to assure that tested electrical equipment and systems are operational and within applicable standards and manufacturer's tolerances and that the equipment and systems are suitable for continued service. This program will also deal with the important subject of troubleshooting electrical systems and choosing the proper preventive maintenance testing equipment and procedures.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

Upon completion of this course, the participant should be able to:

  • Learn How to design and implement a cost-effective electrical maintenance program.
  • Learn the essential procedures for the safe operation, repair, testing, and maintenance of major power equipment.
  • Students will learn how to establish what electrical maintenance work can be done in-house or contracted out.

 

WHO should attend

This comprehensive 12-hour live online training course is designed to benefit those working in maintenance that desire to increase their practical knowledge of electrical maintenance standards and practices. The course is open to industrial, commercial and institutional electrical engineering and maintenance professionals, plant electricians, electrical maintenance supervisors, field and plant personnel.
