Electrical Training

Elevated Work Platforms are becoming more prominant within our industry, enabling wider flexibility and a comprehensive range of work tasks can now be completed safely from them.

So workers need to be competent in the safe operation as they are often working in close proximity to live conductors. 

Elevating Work Platform (EWP) aims to give participants the appropriate skills and knowledge to operate a truck mounted elevated work platform (EWP).

The training and assessment includes practical hands-on skills including:

• planning and risk management
• applicable legislations and standards
• EWP types
• characteristics and uses
• mobile plant and employee MAD’s
• inspection
• maintenance and testing of the EWP
• appropriate PPE
• correct set up
• safe and efficient operation techniques
• attachments – correct use of harness for attachment
• spotting
• shut-down and stowage procedures and associated paperwork
