HVET is the only training course of its kind, providing information and insight into the methods, techniques and technologies within the high voltage testing and transmission engineering industry.
From the basics of high voltage power systems, to more advanced methodology and practice, the course covers individual components and fundamental aspects of high voltage testing techniques both in the classroom and in an active high voltage testing lab.
You’ll gain expert tuition from engineering practitioners and learn through interactive sessions, industrial experiences and case studies. All attendees also receive a digital copy of High-Voltage Engineering and Testing, 3rd edition as part of their registration.
