What You’ll Learn
This UETDRMP018 LV Rescue Course teaches the skills and knowledge required to perform a rescue from live low voltage (LV) electrical apparatus. However, it does not cover overhead power lines or underground electrical cables.
During the course, you’ll inspect and use LV rescue equipment while following current Work Health and Safety (WHS) requirements. Furthermore, you’ll understand the responsibilities of Electricity Supply Industry (ESI) workers and electrical industry workers.
Rescue Procedures
First, you’ll identify site-specific hazards. Next, you’ll follow safe isolation procedures before beginning a rescue. Then, you’ll practise the correct LV panel rescue process using industry-approved equipment.
CPR and Emergency Response
In addition, you’ll complete practical CPR training that follows current Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) guidelines. Moreover, you’ll build the confidence needed to respond safely during electrical emergencies.
