Introduction to Electrical Disconnectors (NV)
Learn about the different types of high voltage electrical disconnectors and earthing switches.
Disconnectors are used to break electrical circuits and to isolate/de-energise sections of an electrical network. Like many other pieces of equipment within a high voltage network, disconnectors are an essential piece of equipment. This course teaches you:
After finishing this course, you will be able to identify the different types of electrical disconnector, all their main components, typical applications and how they are maintained.
Hope to see you on the course!
