Pragmatic Consulting Partners with Alcomet to Deliver Safer Substation Training
We’re thrilled to announce a new collaboration with Alcomet, a leading UK supplier of substation and earthing equipment. This partnership brings together Alcomet’s product expertise with Pragmatic’s accredited, practical training — helping engineers, technicians and safety professionals work more confidently and safely in high-voltage environments.
By aligning our training directly with the equipment people use on site, we’re making it easier to understand what to use, why it matters and how to apply it correctly.
Comprehensive Course Line-Up
At Pragmatic, we’re delivering a suite of industry-recognised courses designed for a range of roles — from operatives and supervisors to managers and designers:
- EUSR Impressed Voltage Awareness
- EUSR Impressed Voltage for Managers (SR/234)
- EUSR Impressed Voltage for Designers (SR/234)
- EUSR Impressed Voltage for Managers with IVDE (ECP/EAP)
- Insulated Working Under Impressed Voltage Conditions (NSI5 equivalent)
- BESC AME Substation Course
- EUSR HSG47 – Avoiding Dangers from Underground Services (HV Substations)
This collaboration creates a clear learning pathway for everyone involved in substation work — from operatives on site to those responsible for design, supervision and management. It ensures that understanding of impressed voltage, insulated working and substation safety is consistent, current and directly linked to the equipment and systems in use.
Ultimately, the partnership is about one thing: helping people go home safe. By combining high-quality training with real equipment insight, Pragmatic Consulting and Alcomet are supporting engineers and contractors with the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to work safely and effectively in some of the industry’s most challenging environments.
Putting Safety and Confidence First
Chris Beasley, Managing Director of Alcomet, said:
“Safety equipment is only effective when it’s properly understood and correctly applied. Partnering with Pragmatic Consulting allows us to ensure that the equipment we supply is supported by training that reflects real-world needs.”
Jo Niblett, Managing Director of Pragmatic Consulting, added:
“This collaboration lets us connect accredited training directly with the tools and systems people rely on daily. Our aim is to remove ambiguity and support safer, more consistent working practices across the industry.”
Together, Pragmatic Consulting and Alcomet are committed to helping TNOs, DNOs, IDNOs and contractors build competence, compliance and confidence — with practical knowledge that supports safer sites across the UK.
