Grade Assessment (GA) – Uploading your Evidence
When it comes time to start uploading your Evidence to MTCS Online, there are individual areas to upload to for each section.
Why do I need a High Voltage course?
The completion of a High Voltage Course is required for personnel to be compliant with health and safety legislation, including Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 (EAW). Basically, your employer has a duty to train you in any activity that is deemed hazardous, in this case high voltage electricity.
Who is the MTCS ROV High Voltage Course suitable for?
The MTCS ROV High Voltage Course is suitable for any person required to maintain or repair a work class ROV, Plough or Trencher that operate on voltages in excess of 1KV AC/1.5KV DC. A high voltage course is not generally required for small inspection ROVs because they do not tend to operate on high voltage…
Why do I need a certificate of competence (and why MTCS)?
The subject of competence is a thread which runs through every workplace the world over and, whilst it may not always be expressed as such, it’s there all the same. But why do we need a certificate of competence, and why choose MTCS?

New Industry Standard Set for Inspection Engineer Training
Leading specialist in competency and training solutions, MTCS (UK), has been working with the DOF Team in Australia to develop a new set of industry standard competencies for Inspection Engineers employed in the Asia Pacific region.
Does the course make me competent to isolate an ROV after completing the course?
No training course can automatically make someone competent, and competence can only be achieved by successfully demonstrating a specific task over a period of time in different scenarios. For example, the competence assessment within the MTCS High Voltage course requires someone to supervise the electrical isolation and ensure it is carried out safely and in accordance with procedures.
Preparing for Assessment
GA and ICA programmes do require commitment from both Candidates and those assessing or witnessing their activities, and appropriate planning and preparation will help support all involved in the process.
