Industry Specific Technical Training Course
3-Day Power, Electricity and Infrastructure
This course provides an in depth overview of all the relevant aspects regarding distribution and electrification networks starting from a substation to service connection level.
Course Details
This course consists of 3 separate sections. The course can be booked as a whole, covering each section over 3 consecutive days or, sections can booked individually and taken as courses on their own.
1. Detailed Design of a Hybrid Network in Electrification
2. Detailed Design of an Overhead Network in Electrification
3. Detailed Design of an Underground Network in Electrification
1. Detailed Design of a Hybrid Network in Electrification
This short course covers the technical design of hybrid energy distribution systems to relevant standards, including electrical clearances, electrical and mechanical loadings, earthing, environmental considerations, minor civil co-ordination aspects and the handling of waterway, and other crossings. It also includes the necessary established procedures to ensure the line design conforms to specific organisational technical standards, operational and system planning requirements and incorporates the principles of safe design. Budget control and management, protection and maintenance.
Course Objectives
- Upon completion of this course, delegates will have an overall appreciation of a hybrid network distribution in electrification and will have learnt the core line design practices to the highest internationally recognised level.
- Delegates will also be in a position to identify the possible avenues of further development in their specific area.
Key Outcomes
- Plan for and coordinate the safe design of a hybrid distribution network system in electrification
- Carry out and coordinate the design of a hybrid distribution network system in electrification
- Complete and coordinate the design, and execution of a hybrid distribution network in electrification
- Discuss the major material types used, when and why they are used

2. Detailed Design of an Overhead Network in Electrification
This short course covers the technical design of overhead distribution networks to relevant standards, including electrical clearances, electrical and mechanical loadings, earthing, environmental considerations, minor civil co-ordination aspects and the handling of waterway, and other crossings. It also includes the necessary established procedures to ensure the line design conforms to specific organisational technical standards, operational and system planning requirements and incorporates the principles of safe design. Budget control and management, protection and maintenance.
Course Objectives
