Course 1: Circuit breaker maintenance, operation and controls, January 20-24, 2014 – Tuition $1,680
Course outline for circuit-breaker maintenance, operation, and controls
36 contact hours
Field and shop technicians, maintenance personnel, supervisors, and others responsible for testing, maintenance, troubleshooting and repair of low and medium-voltage circuit breakers, and associated operating and control systems and devices.
Course description:
Students will learn the electrical and electromechanical operating and control systems of a wide variety of circuit breakers, safety aspects, troubleshooting, and correcting operating problems, and testing and maintenance associated with those control systems to ensure safe, correct, and reliable operation. This includes an overview of direct-acting protection devices in low voltage circuit breakers, and external systems essential for proper breaker operation such as switchgear cubicles, relays and instrumentation in conjunction with both low- and medium-voltage circuit breakers.
Lab time and prerequisites:
About 40% hands-on lab time and 60% lecture, provided that breakers, switchgear and other protective devices, and applicable test instruments, equipment and technical materials are available for hands-on training.
Course 2: Low to medium voltage circuit breaker maintenance and testing, January 27-31, 2014 – Tuition $1,680
36 Contact Hours
Who should attend:
Field and shop technicians, circuit breaker rebuilders, supervisors, and others responsible for the testing and maintenance of molded-case, insulated-case and low-voltage power (drawout) air circuit breakers
Course description:
Students will learn safe and proper maintenance and testing procedures on a variety of circuit breakers, including Siemens, ABB, Cutler-Hammer, Westinghouse, GE, Square-D, and ITE. Students will disassemble backboard assemblies, perform maintenance, reassemble and adjust circuit breakers. Over current device testing will be performed on low-voltage circuit breakers, along with other standard tests. Power factor, vacuum bottle integrity and over potential testing are among the tests performed on medium-voltage breakers. All testing and maintenance is done in accordance with NETA, ANSI and NEMA standards. Class size is limited to 14 participants.
Lab time and prerequisites:
About 60% hands-on lab time and 40% lecture. This will vary with the actual class.

I just want to know whether there is any certified training for a team of 4 members from Oman Dry-dock Company Al-Duqm ,Oman in
1. Primary and Secondary injection testings of Air Circuit Breakers (ACB – Low voltage) applicable for various manufactures like ABB, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, Terasaki & Merlin Gerin / Schneider Electric.
2. Overhauling ,Trouble shooting and Repairing of Air Circuit Breakers (ACB – Low voltage).
Or a generalized course for Air circuit Breaker Operation ,Maintenance and Testing.
Kindly Provide a details of the training available for the above mentioned curriculum and a quotation for the same in details for a team of 4 Members at the earliest.
Hoping an earlier response..
