DC Power Systems and Installation for Telecoms Reviews

Excellent course, unfortunately probably not the course required to satisfy my companies requirement but it looks like there isn't a course specifically tailored to this requirement available on the market. The course was a great balance between theory & practical and the breaks were well placed and timed.

This course was very intensive and the first day there was a lot ( virtually the whole day ) theory, the on-line content we previously completed was included in the final exam. I think 3 days was not efficient, 4 days to 5 days would have been a lot better, therefore the theory could be broken up more, the online content could have been reviewed again within the course days and the practicals could have had more time spent on them.

Overall I thought the course was informative. Although very intense as the first day was all theory but after speaking with Steve Redpath I believe this will change on the next course so it is theory and practical split over the first 2 days. After completing the theory assessment on line I had aa score of 91% as I could not answer one of the questions due to the link not working. I presume this would have given me 93% pass rate. This being said then I must have got 2 or 3 questions wrong, after asking if I could be told what I had got wrong so that I can learn from it, I was told I was unable to find out due to possibly giving the answers away. I find this strange as we should be able to learn from what we have got wrong so that we do not make the mistakes in the real life situation.

Explained that with the correct procedures followed methodically and with the correct equipment connecting to DC voltage terminals can be carried out safely, even for someone with a dislike in working near the stuff

could have had more hands on, if another fuse board ( did not have to be live ) for people to connect up the DC cables. So need at least one more rack with fused may be two.
