Scope

Hazardous Areas Electrical qualification provides competencies to select, install, test, maintain and inspect electrical equipment in hazardous locations (EEHA) in a gas and dust atmospheres. It includes ERAC requirements for an ‘Electrician’s licence’.

Target Workforce

This course is for electrical workers involved in the “hands-on” side of hazardous area electrical work, i.e. the installation, maintenance or inspection of EEHA. Electricians and instrument technicians are the most common attendees, but we also train electrical engineers who perform inspections as part of their role. The course covers the theory and practice of field work in hazardous areas.

Pre Requisites

The course is post-trade training, so we require a current unrestricted electrical license (any Australian state or territory) as a pre-requisite. Electrical engineers meet the pre-requisites for the inspection related units only.

Training Method

Blended delivery of 60% theory and 40% practical training with EEHA equipment that you are likely to see in a typical hazardous area industrial environment – oil, gas and mineral processing industry. The course includes in-class progressive assessment; short answer tests on hazardous area fundamentals; equipment marking; equipment certification; and, device interpretation.

OUTCOME
