There’s no room for error in substations. Whether you’re commissioning new assets, running a maintenance programme, or locating faults, you need to know which tests to perform and how to interpret the results.

Fortunately, on Tuesday 24th November 2026, Megger is bringing a free one-day substation testing workshop to PASS’ NEW Stevenage Training Centre. It has been curated specifically for test and commissioning engineers, protection engineers, HV maintenance technicians, authorised and senior authorised persons, asset managers, and electrical engineers responsible for substations, private HV networks, or switch rooms. Throughout the day, theory and practical sessions will cover relay protection, circuit breakers, CTs, transformers, and batteries.
