From $1,933 per delegate

Description

This course equips learners with the skills to safely fault find and install splices on overhead track equipment (OHTE) conductors under live, isolated, and earthed conditions. It covers the principles of overhead traction equipment, safety protocols for working with live conductors, and techniques for splicing and fault diagnosis. Successful learners will be able to perform these tasks in compliance with relevant regulations and industry best practices.

Learning Outcomes

  • Demonstrate knowledge of OHTE conductor types, splices, and fault-finding procedures.
  • Apply safety protocols for working on live, isolated, and earthed conductors.
  • Analyze fault conditions on OHTE conductors using appropriate testing equipment.
  • Install splices on OHTE conductors under live and/or isolated and earthed conditions.
  • Evaluate the integrity of splices and conductors post-installation.
  • Implement corrective actions based on fault analysis and splice inspection results.

Target Audience

This training is designed for electrical technicians, linesmen, and maintenance personnel working on overhead track equipment in the railway or mining sectors. It is also suitable for supervisors overseeing live-line maintenance operations.

Prerequisites

None — open enrollment. However, learners should have basic electrical knowledge and be physically fit for working at heights.

Practicals

No practicals for this training.

This course is made up of exercises and case studies delivered alongside the theory — no separate practical sessions are required to complete it.

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course and a final summative test at the end.

Daily Exercises — 30%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 30% to the final total.

Final Test — 70%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 70% to the overall mark.

  • Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
  • You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
