GWO Advance Rescue Refresher Training / V5 02052025
The objective is that 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 ART training:
1.
mock-up for the ‘rescue up’ exercises, to simulate basement/tower rescue
2. mock-up to simulate under the gearbox with a max. 0.60m diameter access crawl way into the crawl space, a height between 0.60m and 0.30m and minimum 2.00m length (Basement/Tower/Nacelle Module)
3.
mock-up to simulate the nacelle:
e. figure 6.2.1 provides dimensions to the GWO recommended nacelle mock-up
f. the training provider can deviate from the recommended nacelle measures to facilitate a specific turbine design
g. the nacelle mock-up must be filled with sufficient simulated assets, to create a realistic nacelle environment
h. the maximum available contiguous floor space must be less than 3m 2 , excluding walkways of less than 0.60m width
i. the sides of the nacelle should be designed in such a way as to prevent direct visual contact from within the nacelle to the teams outside of the nacelle
4.
structural and certified anchor points.
It is recommended to connect the various mock-ups to recreate a realistic sequence. For example, connecting the nacelle mock-up with the hub mock-up. Rather than connecting a blade mock-up with the nacelle mock-up. This would provide a more realistic scenario. However, if there are practical reasons to separate the individual mock-ups, then this is allowed. For example, to allow different teams to train at the same time.
