Electrical Safety and Safe Working Practices

Electrical incidents remain a leading cause of serious injury on African worksites, yet most are preventable with sound practice. This course builds a strong safety culture around isolation, arc flash awareness and safe working procedures. Delegates learn to protect themselves and their teams while working on or near live and de-energised equipment.
