Our Location
You can still reserve a spot in the previous $95 LVR / CPR course by visiting our calendar, as the phasing out of the former low voltage rescue course has been prolonged until October 2025.
Pre-requisites for the new course only need to be completed once, and you won’t need to complete any of the pre-requisites if you can give us a copy of your current unrestricted electrical licence.
Please read on for further details about switching to the new course.
Both of the course sets include the standard LVR and CPR units
- HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation
- UETDRMP007 Perform a rescue from a live low voltage panel
Course Set – HLTAID009, UETDREL006 & UETDRMP007 (CPR, Work Safely In The Vicinity Of Electrical Apparatus & LVR)
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to perform a rescue from live low voltage (LV) electrical apparatus in an electricity supply industry (ESI) environment. This does not include overhead lines and underground cables.
It includes the organisational workplace requirements for the inspection and use of live LV panel rescue equipment, and how it applies to ESI workers to meet work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS), mobility and mutual aid requirements.
Completing the course will provide an individual with the skills and knowledge to stay safe and understand compliance requirements for safe approach distances for the worker, plant, tools and equipment and consists of real-life practical skills and knowledge to allow the participant to be able to identify and mitigate hazards in their working environment.
Furthermore, it will provide an individual with the skills and knowledge to carry out and complete the LV panel rescue procedure and to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a casualty in a range of situations. It consists of real-life practical skills and knowledge to allow the participant to be assessed as competent in providing CPR in line with Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) Guidelines as well as rescue procedures from a live low voltage panel.
Due to the high-risk nature of the industry, the program is regarded as a mandatory requirement for specific industries in which employees are required to develop or maintain their professional skills.
