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. The new BTTI-M and new BTTI-E modules can either be offered as stand-alone training or as a combined delivery. Combined delivery of BTTI-M and BTTI-E is equivalent to version 10 of the BTTI module. Total duration for combined delivery has been reduced to 16 hours (two full days). Participant prerequisites have been removed for participants attending the stand-alone BTTI-E module.
