ELEMENT 2.1 - EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN IN OWN ORGANISATION
Learning objective:
16) The participants can explain what hub, blade and spinner rescue preparations, emergency, communication, and command procedures apply in their own organisation (Knowledge, intermediate level)
The instructor shall:
Explain what specific hub, blade and spinner rescue preparations and emergency and communication procedures apply in their own organisation, e.g. concerning:
a. the number of rescue personnel available (on site) for a rescue operation and availability of additional rescue personnel
b. rescue training level depending on your work location in the WTG and number of personnel (e.g. working in the hub, or in the tower)
c. communication procedures of operation, e.g. communication to backup/rescue team, emergency medical treatment (EMT) e.g. ambulance and fire service, site lead, service vessel, helicopter search and rescue (SAR), and the means of communication - radio or phone (cell, IP or satellite phone)
d. command procedures of operation, e.g. site lead command or command in rescue team
e. national and/or local requirements, e.g. confined space regulations and procedures
f. estimated time for professional emergency response providers to arrive
g. what to be aware of (during this training) concerning which specific elements in their own WTG type/WTG environment might differ from the training scenario environment (to visualise and enhance learning transfer), for example:
g.i turbine design (e.g. layout, pathways, access ways, components, obstacles, hatches, helipad)
g.ii anchor points (certified/structural/location)
g.iii rescue equipment (type/quantity/location)
g.iv emergency light (system/equipment)
Facilitate a group Q&A activity on the above to check understanding of specific hub, blade and spinner rescue preparations and emergency and communication procedures
