Low Voltage Rescue Course Gold Coast
UETDRMP018 - Perform Rescue from a Live Low Voltage Panel
Course Overview
This nationally recognised Low Voltage Rescue (LVR) course provides electrical workers with the skills and knowledge required to safely perform a rescue from live low voltage (LV) electrical apparatus in an electrical industry environment. The training applies to live LV panels only - it does not include overhead lines or underground cables. It covers organisational workplace requirements, industry-standard PPE, rescue equipment, safe approach distances, and rescue procedures carried out under network operator conditions. You'll learn to identify site-specific hazards, follow isolation and emergency response procedures, remove a casualty safely from a live LV panel, and provide immediate first aid until medical assistance arrives. CPR must be completed with or prior to this course.
