Training
Our team of international trainers are all earthing experts with substantial experience in both R&D and practical applications. We know about real-world problems and constraints, and have provided thousands of solutions in design, testing and refurbishment of assets across all industries.
“Many thanks to Safearth for a highly engaging day of training on earthing, which was very relevant for our Electrical Safety Authorities in ABB and well received by everyone who attended!”
Gregory S. Leslie, Global Electrical Safety Manager, ABB
Our training is focused on helping people understand, not just on providing information. Courses include a balance of theoretical background and practical application, with real-world examples and, where possible, field demonstrations.
If you or your team need a better understanding of earthing risk or need to learn how to design and test earthing systems, then we can assist.

Safe Earthing Systems: Understanding, Designing & Testing – 3-Day Training Course
This earthing training course is an intensive program in fundamental earthing principles and the practice of earthing system design and testing. It has been developed and is delivered by leading specialists in earthing, all with significant utility experience and a sound understanding of real-world power systems.
Participants will develop an understanding of the science behind earthing, the mechanisms through which earthing does its job, or which earthing-related hazards and risks are created, and an ability to manage those risks through effective design, testing and supervision.
Safe Earthing Systems: Fundamentals of Temporary Protective Earthing – 2-Day Training Course
The condition of temporary protective earths is very important. What about their arrangement? What about their testing? What about the points we connect them to?
The second cause of electrical deaths in the industry is directly a result of your understanding of the hazards associated with temporary protective earthing. Come and learn about how temporary protective earthing really works, and how to ensure it is ready to protect you if something goes wrong.
Introduction to Earthing Integrity Testing – 1-Day Training Course
Understand the importance of testing earthing system condition and know how to best achieve it.

Why Safearth Training?
If you attend a Safearth training course, you won’t just be sitting through a lecture. Engagement and audience participation are key to our approach. We present complex earthing topics in ways you and your workers will understand. We develop videos, animations and physical demonstrations to ensure topics are addressed in the most relevant and practical ways, so you will develop a much better understanding.
At Safearth, we train the experts. When it comes to earthing and electrical interactions like induction and EMC, people often don’t realise how much they don’t know. We can change that, and equip you for your specific needs and challenges. We’ve been running training for many years and trained hundreds of people, so we understand your industry, situation, and needs.
Our team of capable trainers is on call, so we’ve always got the people we need to run the course you need.
There are many reasons why one of our training courses could be right for you:
- Your staff need to know more about earthing because it’s related to their job.
- Your non-electrical staff might be exposed to earthing-related risks, such as substation construction.
- You may have complex assets with many electrical systems that can interact in negative ways unless particular controls are used.
- Regulatory requirements change – we can get you up to date with the latest standards (we helped develop them!)
We are regularly running public courses and can also develop custom courses to suit your specific needs.
Custom Training Courses
We develop fully customised training courses, with a range of delivery methods, from video or in-person lectures to on-site practical training.
- General Earthing Awareness (various options, 30 min to 1 day).
- Construction safety – ensure workers are safe during major projects or maintenance.
- In response to an identified hazard/near miss/incident.
- To upskill your staff, so they can understand and assess what your earthing consultants are advising.
- Staff training to learn about a regulation, standards, or ‘best practice’ change.
- To learn a new or better way of doing things, such as testing.
