Confined Spaces in WTG

Espacios Confinados en Aerogeneradores ECA (8 h)

Aim: The Confined Spaces in Wind Turbines course trains you to work safely in confined spaces such as inside the blades and hub of wind turbines. You will learn to identify specific risks, use personal and collective protective equipment, and follow rescue and evacuation procedures in emergency situations. The course also covers the management of hazardous atmospheres and the application of current regulations in the wind energy sector.
