HVPD Partial Discharge Level 1 & Level 2 Course

HVPD's partial discharge training courses were introduced in 2013 and have been well received by delegates, who have ranged from test technicians to development engineers to HV network asset managers. 

The Guidance on how the data can be used to make informed, condition-based maintenance (CBM) asset management decisions are being included as well.

This course is suitable for people who are new to, or have a general interest in learning more about, partial discharge, including asset managers. Delegates to HVPD's training have included engineers who have been tasked with reviewing and/or implementing condition monitoring (CM) technology, including OLPD monitoring, to assist in the effective asset management of their MV/HV/EHV networks. Evaluation will be made throughout the course with successful candidates being awarded the HVPD certificate of competence upon completion.
