BA5 Training - Skilled Person: Working Safely with Electricity BA5 Training

In this BA5 training course, you will learn to recognize and assess the often invisible hazards of electricity and how to act appropriately. We also cover advanced topics such as network systems, cable calculations, legal obligations as a user or operator of an installation, and conducting risk analyses.

Occupational accidents involving electricity, whether large or small, occur almost daily. Legislation therefore mandates specific training for those working with electrical installations: a BA5 training course.
