An Introduction to the Training Department

Siemens Blog - Tuesday, October 12, 2010

Siemens Transmission and Distribution Ltd Training department is part of Siemens Product Related Services, which means we’re close to the products so we can offer expert training.  Based in Hebburn on Tyneside, we have a dedicated area in our factory where we can carry out demonstrations and practical, “hands on” training.  We also have lecture rooms for more formal training if and when required. 

We have an experienced workforce with a wide variety of skills and knowledge to draw on who are available to present courses, assist in practical demonstrations and answer your questions on Reyrolle high voltage and medium voltage switchgear.

It’s not just switchgear training we offer.
We can offer training on Reyrolle relays through our partners in Protection Devices.  The whole current range of relays can be covered in terms of classroom and practical demonstration.  We also run a highly popular course, which is Energy & Utility Skills Register approved, on SF6 Gas Handling
