Course Overview

The EUSR SHEA Power Conversion Course is a concise, industry-recognised programme designed for individuals who already hold a valid SHEA passport (such as SHEA Gas, Water, Waste, or Telecoms) and wish to extend their qualification into the electricity and power sector.

Delivered over approximately 2–3 hours, this focused conversion course bridges your existing SHEA knowledge with the specific health, safety, and environmental requirements of working on or around power networks.

Aligned with the Energy & Utility Skills Register (EUSR) standards, it ensures delegates understand the hazards associated with electrical infrastructure, legislative frameworks, and safe systems of work needed to operate compliantly in power distribution environments.

Whether you are a utility professional, contractor, or network engineer transitioning into electrical operations, this course provides an efficient route to achieve EUSR SHEA Power registration without repeating the full SHEA programme.

Who should Attend This Course

This EUSR SHEA Power Conversion Course is suitable for:

  • Utility professionals with an existing SHEA card in another sector (Gas, Water, Telecoms, etc.)
  • Multi-skilled operatives moving into electricity infrastructure roles
  • Contractors or network engineers needing SHEA Power authorisation
  • Anyone cross-training between utility sectors
  • Full course repetition is NOT required, but you must be able to present your existing SHEA Passport certification to qualify

Prerequisites

To complete a SHEA conversion, delegates must hold a valid initial EUSR SHEA registration (e.g. Gas, Power, Waste, Water, or Core) that was attained within the previous two years.

The SHEA registration gained through the conversion will have the same expiry date as the initial SHEA registration used to complete the conversion. Completing a conversion does not restart or extend your registration. A full SHEA registration lasts 3 years (5 years for SHEA Gas), and a conversion ends on the same date as your original registration.

Example:

  • SHEA Power completed on 12/12/2025, expiry 11/12/2028
  • SHEA Water conversion completed on 10/10/2026, expiry 11/12/2028

Course Content

Participants of this EUSR SHEA Power Conversion course will explore how SHEA principles apply specifically within the power industry and learn how to identify and control hazards associated with electricity generation and distribution.

Key Learning Areas:

  • Power Industry Legislation & Safety Framework: Understand health, safety, and environmental legislation relevant to the power sector.
  • Electrical Hazards & Risk Management: Identify risks such as electric shock, burns, arcing, and impressed voltage, and apply sector-safe systems of work.
  • Safe Work Practices: Explore how authorisations, permits, and safety documentation ensure controlled working environments.
  • Environmental Responsibilities: Learn about pollution prevention, waste management, and sustainability in power operations.
  • Roles & Responsibilities: Clarify individual and employer responsibilities for maintaining compliance with EUSR and industry standards.
  • Emergency & Incident Response: Review procedures for electrical incidents, near misses, and safety communication.

Modules
The course focuses on two core SHEA Power-specific modules contextualised to real-world power industry operations:

  1. Power Generation and Distribution
    Gain an understanding of how electricity is generated, transmitted, and distributed across the UK network.
    Learn about substations, overhead lines, and underground cables, including an introduction to key network components and voltage levels.
  2. Power Industry Hazards
    Develop an awareness of electrical safety principles, the importance of authorisations, and key hazards such as shock, burns, arcing, and impressed voltage.
    Understand how to minimise risk through safe systems of work and appropriate control measures.
  • Delivery Format: Instructor-led online training (typically 2–3 hours)
  • Industry Recognition: Recognised across UK power utilities and their contractors. From 1 October 2026, SHEA no longer includes a CSCS card: see the CSCS update on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which SHEA passports are accepted for this conversion?

Any valid EUSR-registered SHEA passport (e.g. Gas, Water, Core, Telecoms) gained within the last two years is accepted.

How long does the SHEA Power passport last after conversion?

A full SHEA registration is valid for 3 years (5 years for SHEA Gas). A conversion works differently: your new SHEA Power registration expires on the same date as the original SHEA registration you converted from, so it doesn't add any extra time. Check the expiry date on your current card to see how long you'll have.

What if my existing SHEA passport has expired?

Conversion needs a valid SHEA registration gained within the last two years. If yours has expired, you'll need to take the full SHEA Power course. Please contact us if you're unsure.

Is this course recognised by electricity network operators?

Yes, it is fully EUSR-accredited and recognised by utility companies, contractors, and DNOs across the UK.

Important CSCS Update from 1 October 2026

From 1 October 2026, EUSR SHEA registrations will no longer automatically include the CSCS element. If you need a CSCS card to access construction sites, you will need to apply separately for the appropriate EUSR CSCS card for your job role.

You can add your CSCS card application when booking your SHEA course with Pragmatic. Simply select the appropriate card via the basket option.

Please note: the correct CSCS card depends on your role and the evidence you hold. If you are unsure which card you need, please contact us before booking.
