Certified High Voltage Electrical Safety (IEC, OSHA, NFPA & EN Standards)

High voltage substations, transmission lines and large industrial networks require safe systems of work that draw on several international references. This programme compares and applies the main ones: EN 50110 for operation of electrical installations, IEC 61936 for power installations above 1kV, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.269 for power generation, transmission and distribution, and NFPA 70E for arc flash risk. Participants examine HV hazards, switching and isolation, earthing and bonding, step and touch potential, live working limits and PPE, and learn to build site rules that satisfy multinational operators in the Gulf.

Program Professional Framework

Certified High Voltage Electrical Safety (IEC, OSHA, NFPA & EN Standards)

Program Overview

High voltage substations, transmission lines and large industrial networks require safe systems of work that draw on several international references. This programme compares and applies the main ones: EN 50110 for operation of electrical installations, IEC 61936 for power installations above 1kV, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.269 for power generation, transmission and distribution, and NFPA 70E for arc flash risk. Participants examine HV hazards, switching and isolation, earthing and bonding, step and touch potential, live working limits and PPE, and learn to build site rules that satisfy multinational operators in the Gulf.

Learning Outcomes

  • ✓Compare the scope and key requirements of EN 50110, IEC 61936, OSHA 1910.269 and NFPA 70E for HV work.
  • ✓Plan an HV isolation and earthing sequence with verification of absence of voltage and work zone protection.
  • ✓Assess step and touch potential risks and specify bonding and equipotential zone measures.
  • ✓Determine minimum approach distances and select insulated tools and arc-rated PPE for HV tasks.
  • ✓Draft site HV safety rules that reconcile the requirements of the different standards.

Target Audience

  • HV authorised persons and switching engineers
  • Substation and transmission maintenance engineers
  • Electrical safety and HSE managers in utilities and industry
  • Project engineers commissioning HV installations

Formative feedback against clear performance criteria

Applied Project & Assessment

Applied Project

Participants develop an HV safe work procedure for maintenance on a 132kV or 33kV substation bay, mapping each step to the relevant standard and including isolation and earthing points, approach distances, PPE and the emergency response plan.

Assessment

Short diagnostic at the start, practical tasks linked to each learning outcome, and evaluation of the applied project against published criteria.
