Improving Asset Performance in Power Cable Analysis training course

Improving Asset Performance in Power Cable Analysis

This two-day training course focuses on power cable failure investigation analysis and reporting to improve asset performance.

This two day training focuses on failure investigation analysis on asset performance with specific focus on analysis and reporting of power cables. Day one will cover sessions on power cables and cable failures, introduction to FMECA and investigation methodologies, and day two will cover failure analysis and reporting. 

Result
After the course your knowledge on performing general failure analysis and investigation methodologies has improved. You will understand analytical methods, know how to identify essential information and prepare report writing.
