5.5 Validity Period

The GWO High Voltage Standard modules are valid for the period stated below.

High Voltage Operations High Voltage Operations is an enduring qualification based on the expectation that the participant is actively working under supervision in a wind industry HV environment, on the path to becoming an authorised person for HV operations. Timely progression from initial training to achieving authorisation should be expected, normally within a period of 3 years. If progression to authorisation is not achieved within a timely period, then retraining needs should be considered to ensure compliance per company policy or local compliance requirements.

Once achieving the status of a HV authorised person, it would not normally be expected to repeat this training.

High Voltage Cable Pulling High Voltage Cable Pulling is an enduring qualification. This is based on the expectation that the participant is actively working in a wind turbine environment and involved in HV cable pulling operations.

If there is an extended period of absence from applying the skills, retraining and recertification may be required according to company policy or local compliance requirements.

High Voltage T-Connector Installation High Voltage T-Connector Installation is an enduring qualification. This is based on the expectation that following initial training the participant proceeds to gain and record workplace experience under supervision, working with HV separable connectors and thereafter remains actively working in a wind industry HV environment. If progression from initial training to workplace competence is not achieved within a timely period, or if there is an extended period of absence from applying the skills, retraining and recertification may be required according to company policy or local compliance requirements. High Voltage Transformer Maintenance High Voltage Transformer Maintenance is an enduring qualification. This is based on the expectation that the participant is actively working in a wind turbine environment and involved in HV transformer maintenance activities.

If there is an extended period of absence from applying the skills, retraining and recertification may be required according to company policy or local compliance requirements.
