Electrical Safety (Switch Gear Type 1)
What You’ll Learn
This VR training guides you through the full process of safely performing maintenance on high-voltage switchgear, in line with international electrical safety and operational standards. You’ll learn the importance of step-by-step preparation, effective use of PPE, and strict adherence to lockout-tagout procedures when working on complex electrical systems.
Key learning outcomes include:
Reviewing and signing the work permit before starting the task
Selecting and wearing the appropriate personal protective equipment
Gathering, inspecting, and transporting the required tools and materials
Securing the work area with signage and safety barriers
Performing a controlled disconnection of the switchgear cell
Using specialised keys, instruments, and voltage detection tools to isolate the equipment
Removing and relocating the cell safely to the designated repair area
Finalising the task in coordination with the site foreman
This training reinforces procedural discipline and electrical safety awareness—critical skills for working in high-risk, high-voltage environments.
The Scenario
The simulation begins at a power distribution facility, where your first task is to review and sign the work permit, followed by equipping yourself with the correct PPE. You’ll then collect your tools and transport them using a trolley to the switchgear room.
At the switchgear location, you’ll go through the full shutdown and disconnection process, which includes:
Placing visible warning signs to secure the area
Using a voltage detector to verify equipment status
Executing a step-by-step power isolation, using appropriate lockout keys and tools
Safely extracting the switchgear cell with a specialised transport cart
Relocating the unit to the maintenance zone and completing the task with the foreman
The VR environment is fully interactive and mirrors real-world electrical procedures, helping you practise proper sequence, tool use, and hazard control in a safe, repeatable setting.
