New Zealand Certificate in Electrical Equipment in Explosive Atmospheres (Level 4)
Ensuring workplace safety in potentially explosive environments from the presence of gases, vapours, dusts and flammable materials is the key purpose of this qualification.
This qualification is designed for electricians, instrument technicians, mechanical and process workers who need to meet safety regulations in hazardous areas, now referred to as ‘explosive atmospheres.’
During the course, you’ll gain theoretical knowledge and find out how to apply safety principles, procedures, and statutory requirements to safely enter and operate an explosive atmospheres site. These include, but are not limited to, oil and gas and petrochemical industries, dairy industries and other industries that have gases, vapors, dusts or flammable products on site.
This qualification is only offered through WITT, and is available to students throughout New Zealand, including in-house training.
