Technical training

Blade Repair Standard / V4 2023-05-02

The participants shall:

Practise the ability to:

a. safely use a low-resistance ohmmeter to measure the resistance of the lightning protection system

b. safely use a low-resistance ohmmeter to identify a defective lightning receptor

SANDING SKILLS

45 min.

The aim of the lesson is to enable the participants to choose the correct PPE, equipment, and method to sand safely and effectively.

After having successfully completed this lesson of the Blade Repair Module, the participants can:

206) Act independently in selecting the correct PPE, equipment, and method to sand safely and effectively (Ability, intermediate level)

ELEMENT 23.1 - SANDING

Learning objectives:

207) The participants can describe health and safety risks associated with working with a sander and how to mitigate those risks (Knowledge, basic level) 208) The participants can describe how the surface profile affects the aerodynamic performance of the blade, and how blade repair work can change the surface profile leading to reduced performance and loss of production (Knowledge, basic level) 209) The participants can act independently in sanding filler material to match the surrounding aerodynamic profile following a repair, and achieve the correct surface finish for paint adhesion (Ability, intermediate level)

The instructor shall:

Lead a discussion about the health and safety risks associated with working with a sander by considering the ergonomic implications, including vibration, the dust produced, the electrical hazard, flying debris, noise and the risks posed by high-speed rotating tools
