AVO Training Institute celebrates 50 years of keeping people safe from the dangers of electrical hazards. From equipment application and maintenance procedures to safe work practices, arc flash hazard analysis and engineering services; AVO is the complete one-stop learning center. In addition to classroom lecture our difference is our hands-on approach to training. Students are required to perform tasks in equipment labs supervised by the most talented electrical instructors in the industry.

AVO Training Institute focuses on three core areas:

• Electrical Safety Training
• Electrical Maintenance Training
• Arch Flash Engineering Studies

Electrical Maintenance Training

Maintaining you equipment properly not only leads to less downtime and repairs, but also leads to a safe work environment for your employees.  When equipment failures happen, machinery can be damaged or destroyed, and people may be injured, or worse.  Our Electrical Maintenance Courses teach your technicians how to properly maintain electrical equipment in an electrically safe way.  Our courses are not only lecture based, but are hands-on, and a student will not pass without showing he or she can apply the techniques they have learned on actual equipment. 

Our Electrical Maintenance Courses Include:

Substation Maintenance I & II

Circuit Breaker Maintenance, Low-Voltage

Circuit Breaker Maintenance, Medium-Voltage

Circuit Breaker Maintenance, Molded- & Insulated-Case

Circuit Breaker Maintenance, SF6

Cable Splicing & Terminating, Medium-Voltage
