Comtest is hosting a practical earthing and lightning protection seminar, presented by Power Quality Company managing director Mike Visser on 21 April at its Midrand offices. The course has been designed to demystify the subject of lightning and surge protection in a clear, straightforward manner. The seminar aims to increase awareness and importance of correct practices to ensure safety of personnel, plant and equipment.
The seminar is divided into six sessions, namely:
* Reasons for, and history of, earthing.
* Different earthing systems.
* Lightning protection, objectives, options and technologies.
* Planned maintenance.
* Lightning protection case study workshop.
* Calculating and implementing a cost-effective earth mat design.
Benefits of attending the seminar include:
* SAIEE 0,75 CPD points for attending this course.
* Participation in an interactive workshop.
* Learn from recognised experts with cross – industry experience.
* Comprehensive course documentation and a sample quality manual.
Participants have an opportunity to gain an understanding of the codes that govern the design and installation of lightning protection systems as well as a new look at issues that reduce the risk of damage and injury. Learn the codes of practice that govern the installation and maintenance of lightning protection systems in South Africa today; code requirements to implement correct complaint systems, and gain a new understanding on how to maintain correct lightning protection systems according to the SANS codes of practice.
