Electrical safety in organisations is often the responsibility of non-electrically qualified staff, such as facilities managers, risk managers or health & safety officers who have not had systematic training in how to prevent electrical hazards in the workplace. This situation results in a number of deaths in the workplace being caused by electrical incidents. This course provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of electrical safety and a systematic set of principles for assessing and managing electrical safety in any business and across all sectors of industry and the public sector: the subject is universally applicable, across industries and countries. The course is applicable to the buildings, facilities, equipment and environments associated with a wide range of organisations, irrespective of size, which includes the industrial, commercial and the public sectors. The course provides practical guidance to enable individuals and their organisations to have a level of knowledge and understanding to manage the risks associated with an electrical system. It will focus on providing a specific procedure for managing electrical safety. The course follows the structure of the IET’s Code of Practice for Electrical Safety Management. The aim of the Code of Practice for Electrical Safety Management is to provide good practice guidance to enable individuals and their organisations to have a level of knowledge and understanding to manage the risks associated with an electrical system. There are many technical publications that provide guidance on certain aspects of electrical safety but not in a way that provides a process for managing electrical safety.

The UK has set an ambitious 2050 Net Zero Carbon target. A fundamental part of the Net Zero Carbon strategy is to change from gas heating systems to cleaner electrified heat. This course aims to equip those involved in forming energy strategies, planning developments, new building projects, refurbishment projects on how electrified heat can be correctly applied. Whilst a major focus of the course is on heat pumps the course also considers other options for electrified heating and what the components are for all these heating system options. The course also details building fabric considerations, electrical system requirements and addresses the issue of using electrified heat to generate hot water for domestic purposes.

This course provides learners with a good understanding of the technical requirements for surge protection for mains power, instrumentation, control, voice and data circuit installations. The course outlines the lightning protection and earthing principles on surge protection and discusses the surge protection requirements based on BS EN 62305 and BS 7671. Modules also consider the need for risk assessment for lightning and surge protection, sources of disturbance and damages caused by different risks and the importance of good earthing and main equipotential bonding. The course explores several examples of good and poor surge protection and the correct selection, installation, commissioning and monitoring of SPDs under different system earthing types.
