Technical training
Blade Repair Standard / V4 2023-05-02
6.2 Practical Training Facilities All facilities shall be maintained and, where appropriate, inspected and tested in accordance with current national legislation and manufacturers’ specification. It is recommended that the facilities reach European standards. Risk assessments shall be conducted and documented for all training facilities. The training provider shall hold the required permits to operate the facilities. The learning process is facilitated by comparable elements, comparing the training environment and the participants’ working environment. Comparable elements enhance the application of what is learned. The practical training facilities and the training environment are therefore expected to incorporate as many elements comparable to a real wind turbine working environment as is reasonably practicable. The practical training facility should enable each participant to, individually and/or as part of a team, see, hear and practise the taught subject matter in such a way that it resembles the working practices in a real wind turbine environment.
The following training facility items will be required for the blade repair training:
A workshop area with sufficient:
1. dust extraction to ensure that the amount of dust in the air is kept below 10 milligrams per cubic metre
2.
filtration of extracted air to prevent environmental contamination
3. exposure control measures to limit exposure limits for the instructor and participants to those as stated in the safety data sheet for all materials being used 4. temperature and humidity control to ensure that all materials being used are used within the usage limits specified in the technical data sheet for those materials
5. segregation from classrooms and administrative areas to prevent cross contamination of chemicals
6.
waste segregation to prevent cross contamination
The training provider must ensure that chemical waste is disposed of in accordance with national legislation.
The training provider must provide a changing area between workshop areas and clean areas like classrooms and administration areas where participants and staff can change their shoes to prevent contamination of clean areas with chemicals. The above are the minimum requirements, if national legislation and regulations supersedes this, then they must be followed. 6.3 Training Equipment The equipment required for training as listed in Annex 1 must be available and must fulfil national legal requirements in the country where the training is taking place.
