SF6 Training




SF6 Training for Technicians
Our SF6 Training was designed based on the recommendations of the EPA’s SF6 Emissions Reduction Partnership, and years of experience in the power testing industry. We mix practical knowledge with a strong background in how SF6 equipment works. This class is for any technician who will be working directly with SF6 power equipment, such as SF6 breakers and transformers. We want to give you the knowledge you need to be successful in the field.
