AVO Training Institute - Circuit Breaker Maintenance (Medium Voltage)
2013-06-27 18:08:00| Transmission & Distribution World
Unlike a low-voltage breaker, medium-voltage breakers rated at 1 kV or higher rely on external controls to operate effectively. That means technicians have more components to test and maintain to ensure a 3 to 5 cycle operating time. Failure of one of these breakers can cause catastrophic damage to other equipment and is extremely hazardous to nearby personnel. With safe and proper maintenance, technicians can ensure that tripping operations execute as required for equipment protection. In addition to improving electrical system reliability, well maintained circuit breakers also minimize the arc flash hazard energy levels that technicians can be exposed to during a fault. Location Various Locations United States See map: Google Maps Course Duration: 3.5 days Credits: 2.8 CEUs Level of Involvement: Hands-on Schedule: 8:00am - 4:30pm, the final day ends at 12:00pm Locations: Dallas, TX; Valley Forge, PA Course Number: 300 Tuition USD: $ 1440 Unlike a low-voltage breaker, medium-voltage breakers rated at 1 kV or higher rely on external controls to operate effectively.
