Course Description

INTRODUCTION

It is important for modern day process plants, large industrial installations, Oil & Gas plants and offshore installations to be able to implement methods of operation which are reliable, proactive and cost effective. In the 21st Century, a modern practice to ensure that practical and cost-effectives are utilized, is to have a multi-skilled workforce.

 The Application of Electrical and Instrumentation training course has been developed to ensure that companies and organizations are able to provide training and competence so that their Engineering teams are skilled in both Electrical and Instrument Engineering and are also able to be proactive and reactive to plant outages and faults, so that downtime of plant and systems is limited and does not have significant cost implications for companies and organizations.

This training seminar will highlight:

  • The requirements of Health and Safety when dealing with Electrical and Instrument Engineering applications
  • Required standards required when working with Electrical and Instrument Technology
  • Minimum requirement and good practice safe isolation procedures
  • The requirements of electrical Installation and Maintenance
  • Basic parts of an Instrument system such as Transducers, Signals, Indicators and controllers
  • Basic Instrument and control techniques
  • Measurement principles for Pressure, Level, Flow and temperature

Introduction to Electrical and Instrument drawings, such as Single-line diagrams, Schematic diagrams, logic control, Loop diagrams, Hook-up diagrams and P&ID.

Objectives

At the end of this training seminar, you will learn to:

  • Elaborate on the Installation requirements of IEC 60079-14 and some requirements of IEEE standards
  • Discuss requirements of competent personnel onsite
  • Demonstrate the correct installation of a variety of Oil and Gas suitable cable Glands and accessories
  • Apply Health and Safety, Isolation and safe working practice requirements to their workplace
  • Use a variety of technical information such as schematic diagrams, wiring diagrams and area classification drawings

Training Methodology

A variety of technical lectures, practical demonstrations and practical exercises will be used to deliver the training to candidates. Case studies and examples of good and bad practice will also be demonstrated through practical demonstration and case study DVD. An end of course practical and Written Assessment will also be completed by all candidates.

Organisational Impact

The impact from sending your work force onto this course are wide and far reaching. Candidates will gain a variety of practical and theoretical knowledge which complies with current practice and legislation. The knowledge gained by candidates can be applied back in their work roles and can be used to ensure the following:

  • Delegates are conversant in Health & Safety and legal requirements when working with Electrical and Instrument equipment
  • Delegates are up-to-date with current practices and techniques when using Electrical and Instrument technology
  • Delegates with gain a very good basic understanding of a variety of Electrical and Instrument equipment
  • Delegates will be able to apply good practice techniques to diagnose problems with Electrical and Instrument equipment
  • Delegates competence levels will gain more skill by learning new and additional techniques to Install and Maintain Electrical and Instrument equipment

Personal Impact

  • Delegates will be able to gain a thorough knowledge of Health & Safety requirements, the electricity at work regulations and common industry practices such as ‘Permit to Work’ and safe isolation techniques such as ‘LOTO'
  • Delegates will be able to elaborate on basic electrical concepts such as Ohms law, Power, Inductance and Capacitance
  • Delegates will be able to discuss basic Electrical Installation techniques such as cable installation, Glanding, Terminating and Electrical Inspection & Testing
  • Delegates will be able to apply safe working practices when working with Extra Low Voltage, Low Voltage and some High Voltage applications
  • Delegates will be able to apply planned preventative maintenance techniques to their workplace
  • Delegates will be able to elaborate on basic concepts of an Instrument system such as Transducers, Signaling, Transmission, Indicators, Recorders and Controllers
  • Recognise methods of measurement for Pressure, Level, Flow and Temperature
  • Recognise on a basic level principles of control such as PID
  • Be able to use a variety of Engineering drawings such as Single-line, Schematic, Component, PLC, Hook-up, P&ID and Loop drawings

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

  • Engineers who are not Electrically or Instrument qualified
  • Technicians who are not Electrically or Instrument qualified
  • Electrical Technicians who require more knowledge on Instrumentation
  • Instrument Technicians who require more knowledge on Electrical Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineers and Technicians who require knowledge on Electrical and Instrument Engineering
  • Newly qualified Technicians and Engineers (Electrical or Instrument)
  • Any Technician who requires to be multi-skilled with an Electrical or Instrument bias
