Low Voltage Rescue

Every profession comes with its own safety risks and dangers. For electricians, electrical apprentices and electrical trade assistants, this includes the dangers associated with working with electricity. 

Specialist electrical first aid training helps to keep your tradespeople safe by furnishing them with the skills to perform emergency rescue and first aid in various electrical environments. In many parts of Australia, this training is a legal requirement for all your electrical staff.

As a specialist accredited safety training provider, Safety and Learning Techniques (SaLT) makes taking care of your safety training obligations easy. We ensure your people have the skills they need to keep themselves and others safe – and to keep you compliant.

What is Low Voltage Rescue training:

Low voltage rescue (LVR) training provides your people with the skills and knowledge they need to perform a rescue from a live or potentially live low voltage panel (defined as less than 1000V AC or 1500V DC). LVR training also covers CPR so your people can administer any necessary life-saving support after the rescue until emergency services arrive.

By law, any Queensland electrical tradespeople or trade assistants must renew their low LVR training annually. The course takes approximately four hours to complete. 

Why work with SaLT:

As a registered training organisation, SaLT delivers accredited LVR training. This ensures that your people receive a recognised qualification upon completion of the course.

Although we teach from the accredited curriculum, our trainers tailor their LVR training presentation to suit your business and workplace environment/s. This ensures your people walk away from training with truly applicable lifesaving knowledge and skills.

In addition to initial and refresher LVR training, we also offer training for providing first aid in an electricity supply industry (ESI) environment, so you can take care of all your electrical safety training needs with one provider.
