Training & Events

Phase 2 -- This course helps lineworkers troubleshoot problems throughout a utility’s distribution system. Practical exercises using actual diagrams and drawings are conducted throughout the three days. Participants learn to identify problems that could occur in a substation on a trouble call and the characteristics of electrical substation equipment that interrupt or establish electrical circuits and change the voltage, frequency and other characteristics of the substation.
