The Basic Electrical Training modules are targeted at candidates who have no previous experience of electrical systems but may also be used to up skill candidates who have some knowledge but not of their application in wind turbines.
Prerequisites
All personnel participating in Basic Electrical Training shall be medically fit and capable of fully participating.
Furthermore, Delegates shall have created a personal Delegate profile in WINDA and provide their own WINDA ID prior to completing the BTT training.
Valid GWO WINDA ID:

There are no prerequisites for this module but some sort of practical mechanical or electrical maintenance background would be useful.
Furthermore, personnel in the wind service industry must be able to read and write to a sufficient standard to be able to carry out instructions and complete the required documentation. It is an advantage if Delegates are able to read, speak and write English.
Objective
The aim of this BTT Electrical Module is to give the Delegates the knowledge and skills to carry out basic electrical tasks (supervised by an experienced technician) using safe working procedures and the correct PPE.
The BTT Electrical Module shall ensure Delegates are able to:
• Explain the basics of electricity
• Explain risks and hazards associated with electrical work
• Explain the function and symbol of electrical components
• Explain the function of different types of sensors
• Explain and interpret a simple electrical diagram and demonstrate how to assembly it on a circuit
• Demonstrate how to make correct and safe measurements
