Airfield Technical
5KV Splicing and Termination Certification
The 5KV Splicing and Termination Certification validates the specialized technical expertise required to prepare, splice, and terminate medium-voltage shielded power cables. This certification goes beyond standard electrical knowledge, focusing on the precision mechanics of cable preparation, semi-conductive layer removal, stress control, and grounding in high-stakes environments. AC 150/5370-10, Item L-108 - Failure to utilize certified, qualified technicians for medium-voltage connections is a violation of these safety standards. Improper termination is the leading cause of circuit failure in airfield lighting, posing immediate risks to runway safety and operational continuity.
NOTE: To become certified, you must have the necessary tools.
