SMART GROUND™ TRAINING
Hood-Patterson & Dewar offers client specific Smart Ground™ Meter (SGM) training at their facility or designated site. The training course is designed for a maximum of 10 participants and is best suited for a two-day session; Day 1 in a classroom environment and Day 2 in the field.
Day 1 of the training provided an introduction into the theory of ground testing and different methods to perform ground testing, both past and present. This training covers soil resistivity, system ground impedance, ground mat impedance, touch and step potentials, transmission tower grounds, transfer voltage measurement and point to point continuity testing. The various available test methods are explained and compared to the SGM methods.
Day 2 is hands-on field testing with SGM using the ground grid model, which was constructed using the SGM ground editor during Day 1. These tests are performed at the client designated site. Various site tests are performed.
Additional details about this training are available on our Smart Ground™ Meter Training Course brochure.
Training can be customized to meet any client needs. For additional information, please contact: Hilton Mills or Lyn Cosby.
