Protecting your distribution network 

The fundamental principle of controlling danger with the operation of High Voltage (HV) and Low Voltage (LV) 

circuit breakers lies at the centre of all networks, from a major transmission system, down to a simple radial LV 

distribution board. Failure of a device to operate correctly could result in serious damage and endanger personnel. 

These courses enable delegates to grasp the characteristics of these essential products, covering the correct 

installation and set up of breakers and its allied protection.
