About this Classroom Training

Power systems have grown to become the single largest most connected system humans have ever designed. As we scale up in production, connectivity, and consumption, the impact of our failures become proportionately larger. Today a large blackout on the grid level may impact millions of users.

A failure offers a great opportunity to asset owners, engineers and operators acquire knowledge by identifying the cause(s) and use this knowledge to enhance safety and improve performance. Failure investigations often play an integral part of the total asset management process and provide essential information for risk assessments – be it related to engineering specifications, manufacturing, transportation, installation, commissioning tests, maintenance, operation, or ageing mechanisms.

This 3-day course will provide guidance for the participants on the main concepts and principals involved in carrying out a failure investigation. The course also presents interesting case study examples and is embedded with interactive sessions such as mock-up failure investigations to encourage participants to practice what is learnt throughout the course.

This course will be delivered face-to-face over 3-day sessions, comprising of 8 hours per day, 1 hour lunch and 2 breaks of 15 minutes per day. Course Duration: 24 hours in total, 24 CPD points. Maximum number of participants: 25
