This Statement is issued to a student who has successfully completed one or more units of competency listed below.
This qualification provides competencies to select, install, test, maintain and inspect electrical equipment in hazardous areas (EEHA) in a gas and dust atmosphere. It includes ERAC requirements for an ‘Electrician’s license’.
This post-trade professional development course is for anyone involved in the “hands-on” side of hazardous area electrical work, i.e. the installation, maintenance or inspection of hazardous area electrical equipment. Electricians and instrument technicians are the most common attendees, but we also train electrical engineers who perform inspections as part of their role. The course covers the theory and practice of field work in hazardous areas.
The course is post-trade training, so we usually require a current electrical license (any Australian state or territory) or instrumentation trade certificate as a pre-requisite. Electrical Engineers who complete the inspection units of competency marked * in the table above, will be entitled to receive the SOA. If you have other qualifications or you’re unsure please just give us a call, we may still be able to help.
Blended delivery of 60% theory and 40% practical training with equipment that you are likely to see in a typical industrial environment with electrical equipment in hazardous areas (EEHA). The course includes in-class progressive assessment; short answer tests on hazardous area fundamentals; equipment marking; equipment certification; and, device interpretation.
