Why use virtual reality for medium voltage equipment and safety training?
Could you make your medium voltage electrical installations safer? There could not be a more important goal. The latest digital training innovations can give students an edge and a perspective that wasn’t previously achievable within the confines of a classroom experience. Specifically, I’m talking about training using virtual reality (VR). It’s an effective teaching tool because the technology allows operators to familiarize themselves with MV electrical installations and prepare them for real-life scenarios. It gives field personnel hands-on training by simulating situations in a controlled environment. VR training gives users visual, real-time, simple-to-follow instructions and operating procedures as well as key messages, which help reduce the chance of human error and direct operators to the correct equipment for handling particular tasks. This training comes in many shapes and sizes and can be used by either individual learners or groups and either in-person or remotely. The t...
