Basic Technical Training Standard / V11 10032026

5.1 Overview

The GWO Basic Technical Training is divided into the following 7 modules:

Module 1: Mechanical Module 2: Electrical Module 3: Hydraulic Module 4: Bolt Tightening

Module 5: Installation Mechanical Module 6: Installation Electrical Module 7: Hazardous Energies Basic Safety

These training modules can be delivered independently of one another as standalone training or modules may be delivered in combination to participant groups to provide some efficiencies and time savings in the overall durations of the training.

Refer to section 5.4 for details of typical BTT modules combinations and the related training durations.

5.2 Target Group The Basic Technical Training modules are targeted at candidates who have no previous experience of mechanical, electrical, hydraulic or installation systems, working with energy powered bolt tightening, or working with hazardous energies but may also be used to upskill candidates who have some knowledge but not of its application in wind turbines.

BTT Bolt Tightening and BTT Installation modules provide training relevant to specific work activities and roles. BTT Hazardous Energies Basic Safety training is relevant to work where hazardous energies are found.

The training required for different wind industry work roles varies and it is up to the duty holder to determine which modules should be mandatory training required for their workplace.

5.3 Aims and Objectives This Basic Technical Training prepares participants for further company specific training by providing them with the necessary training to perform basic hydraulic, mechanical, electrical, bolt tightening and installation tasks. When technical work takes place within the wind turbine and the environment of a wind farm, hazardous energies are found in various forms posing a risk of injury to all workers. The Hazardous Energies Basic Safety module has been developed as a basic training on the risks related to hazardous energies in the wind industry to prepare workers to act safely when in the vicinity of hazardous energies or when working on systems and equipment containing hazardous energies.

These courses will not make the participant a trained person who is allowed to perform hydraulic, mechanical, electrical, bolt tightening or installation work without supervision.
