Our three-year Advanced Apprenticeship Substations programme will train you to become a craftsperson in our substations. Here, we transform high-voltage electricity into low-voltage electricity, making it usable for homes and businesses.
As a technician, you'll play a vital role in maintaining our substations and ensuring a safe and reliable electricity supply.
During the apprenticeship, you'll learn;
Maintenance techniques for power transformers, main connections, terminals, and various types of joints
Experience working with air systems, batteries, and environmental battery charger systems
Following strict safety guidelines, you'll be responsible for the maintenance, repair, and monitoring of high-voltage substation equipment, including circuit breakers, transformers, disconnectors, compressors, and auxiliary systems
Your skills and expertise will contribute to the smooth operation of our substations and the overall electricity transmission network.Training:
Initially, you will be at our National Training Centre in Eakring, Nottinghamshire for your Induction period which is around six weeks, then periodically for technical training
In the first year, you will spend 70% of your time at the Eakring Training Centre with the remaining 30% on-site (gathering site-based experience)
Year two will be 50/50 at Eakring and on-site and in the third year 70% on-site and 30% at Eakring training centre
You will get a Level 3 Power Network Craftsperson qualification at the end of the 3 years
Training Outcome:
By the end of the programme, you'll hold a Level 3 qualification as a Power Industry Substation Fitter, and most importantly, have a job waiting for you!

Our three-year Advanced Apprenticeship Substations programme will train you to become a craftsperson in our substations. Here, we transform high-voltage electricity into low-voltage electricity, making it usable for homes and businesses.
As a technician, you'll play a vital role in maintaining our substations and ensuring a safe and reliable electricity supply.
During the apprenticeship, you'll learn:
Maintenance techniques for power transformers, main connections, terminals, and various types of joints
Experience working with air systems, batteries, and environmental battery charger systems
Following strict safety guidelines, you'll be responsible for the maintenance, repair, and monitoring of high-voltage substation equipment, including circuit breakers, transformers, disconnectors, compressors, and auxiliary systems
Your skills and expertise will contribute to the smooth operation of our substations and the overall electricity transmission network.Training:
Initially, you will be at our National Training Centre in Eakring, Nottinghamshire for your Induction period, which is around six weeks, then periodically for technical training
In the first year, you will spend 70% of your time at the Eakring Training Centre with the remaining 30% on-site (gathering site-based experience)
Year two will be 50/50 at Eakring and on-site and in the third year 70% on-site and 30% at Eakring training centre
You will get a Level 3 Power Network Craftsperson qualification at the end of the 3 years
Training Outcome:
By the end of the programme, you'll hold a Level 3 qualification as a Power Industry Substation Fitter, and most importantly, have a job waiting for you!
