REA (Electrical Risk in Wind Turbines)

Electrical Risk in Wind Turbines

Riesgo Eléctrico en Aerogeneradores REA (6 h)

Aim: To provide the basic knowledge and skills to carry out work safely in the presence of electrical risk. At the end of the course, students will be able to work safely following the basic procedures against the risk of the presence of electricity in the work area. All this based on R.D. 614/2001, on Minimum Provisions for the protection of the health and safety of workers against Electrical Risk.
