New Enclosed/Confined Space Training Vault
As part of a recent Enclosed/Confined Space safety training class held at the NEPPA Training Center in Littleton, Mass., the new underground vault was utilized in a practical training exercise. A volunteer was lowered into the vault and a practice rescue was performed by each of the participants. This is the first occasion for using the new vault in a practical training exercise. When the side viewing door is finished, the facility will be used for many of the training classes that will be held in Littleton, including Substation classes, Underground Conductor classes, Advanced Lineworker classes, as well as all of the Apprentice classes. It will house underground feeders with elbows, t-bodies, conductor racks, etc. to simulate underground vaults found throughout the electric industry. It will be a great enhancement to the NEPPA Training Facility.
