Course delegates will receive 1 day of course delivery to provide them with the latest updates and refresh the content of the current directives and practices. Following delivery, the delegates are assessed in maintenance, installation and inspection.
This course was previously called CompEx Refresher.
The RPP now requires practical termination of armoured cable glands and practical inspection of Electrical and Instrument installations to IEC standards, therefore we would advise delegates to read through the Tool Box guide prior to attending.
