CSA Z463 Electrical Maintenance

CSA Z463 Electrical Maintenance

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.

CSA Z463 Electrical Maintenance training - Our 6-Hour, live online, instructor led course teaches students how to plan and work in compliance with the CSA Z463 standard for industrial, commercial and institutional power facilities.

The CSA Z463 Standard governing the Electrical Maintenance of Industrial, Commercial and Institutional Electrical Power Systems has been designed to improve the safety of electrical workers and the protection of electrical equipment through the proper application of electrical maintenance strategies.

This comprehensive one-day workshop provides invaluable information to anyone who wishes to know and understand the role of the NEW CSA Z463 electrical maintenance standard, which governs the procedures for the optimal maintenance of electric power systems. The importance of planning, programming and implementing electrical maintenance practices will be emphasized. This workshop also deals with safety considerations involved in electrical maintenance procedures for all the components of any electrical system. This will be an interactive forum where the instructor will lead the discussion between students so as to maximze the educational experience.

This Electrical Maintenance workshop discusses various methods to properly identify electrical equipment and systems that directly affect the safe operation of electrical equipment and reliability, as well as the electrical safety of front-line electrical workers.

As well as helping delegates keep abreast of the latest technologies and techniques available in this area, this workshop offers students an excellent opportunity to ask specific questions and exchange ideas relating to their own electrical maintenance activities. This workshop is designed to be an interactive, problem-solving, learning environment for delegates of all disciplines.

Electrical Maintenance personnel will learn predictive and preventative maintenance techniques and priorities through a through examples of common and catastrophic electrical failures.

This workshop will present electrical maintenance strategies that are designed to integrate into their existing business management systems, with other programs such as hazardous energy lockout control programs, as well as electrical safety programs.

This workshop will therefore incorporate information about two other important CSA Electrical Standards:

 

  • CSA Z460 Control of Hazardous Energy and Other Methods,
  • CSA Z462 Workplace Electrical Safety

 

This Electrical Maintenance workshop promotes the importance of electrical maintenance of electric power systems, and provides practical advice, as well as electrical maintenance and testing requirements for electrical equipment and systems, from various electrical maintenance references and sources.

The purpose of this workshop is to encourage the safe, reliable, and cost-effective operation of industrial, commercial and institutional electrical equipment through the proper application of electrical maintenance and testing practices.

 

LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • Understand how CSA Z463 should be applied to electrical maintenance procedures
  • Understand the correct steps to minimize risk of electrical injuries and electrical equipment failure
  • Understand how to improve electrical equipment efficiency
  • Understand specialized maintenance practices for industrial electrical equipment
