ELEMENT 7.2 - TASK-BASED TRAINING FOR HANDLING BATTERIES AND CAPACITORS IN A SAFE MANNER
Learning objectives:
The participants can act independently in handling batteries and capacitors in a safe manner (Ability, intermediate level). The participants can act independently in selecting and using appropriately insulated tools for working on batteries and capacitors (Ability, intermediate level).
The instructor shall:
Show and demonstrate the safe handling of batteries and capacitors. The practice will include isolation of energy to batteries and capacitors mounted on a live circuit, replacement of a battery and a capacitor and disposal of the removed battery and capacitor, all in accordance to ‘ a to e ’ (below): When connected to a circuit, always visually inspect the batteries and capacitors before starting working on them; look for signs of distress and leakage.
