PD291807: High Voltage Safety and PPE

Abstract

Content: High Voltage Safety & PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) is a necessary and important course to complete when planning to diagnose or repair hybrid or electric vehicles. This eLearning course, from SAE training partner FutureTech* will provide information on how to test high voltage gloves, when and where to send high voltage gloves for periodic testing, and how to safely use the proper test equipment for measuring high voltage components in live and disabled high voltage systems.
At the conclusion of this course, you will know how to care for and test high voltage gloves which, test equipment to purchase and how to use it, and how to safely make measurements on a high voltage system.
Technical information within this course will apply to any electrified vehicle. While the duration of the course is one hour, the estimated time to completion, including knowledge checks and the final learning assessment, is two hours.

Learning Objectives

Content

By participating in this on-demand course, you'll be able to:

Select High Voltage Electrical Safety gloves
Follow guidelines in how to properly maintain High Voltage Electrical Safety gloves
Field test High Voltage Safety gloves before each use
Properly interface a Differential Oscilloscope probe when measuring voltage in High Voltage systems
Apply correct Category (CAT) ratings when using or purchasing tools or equipment
Use an Insulation Resistance tester to test and identify components for any insulation failures

Who Should Attend

Content: High Voltage Safety is a primary concern when any engineer is developing, verifying, or validating a vehicle electrification system. This course will provide essential information, and the associated electrical requirements of high voltage in electrical systems and tools associated with measuring high voltage system voltage and current. The associated Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) necessary for any engineer interfacing with high voltage systems is also an integral segment of this course.
