The Horizon Engineering Training School is Northern Ireland’s first facility for High and Low Voltage systems training as well as Mechanical Competency training. For the first time, engineers with the necessary aptitude and qualifications can undertake training to further their electrical engineering and mechanical engineering careers by maintaining their competence right here in Belfast.
Operating HV switchgear can be a potentially dangerous activity, and it’s vital that only competent and confident engineers carry out HV switching operations.
At the Horizon Electrical Training School, we understand the importance of keeping HV switchgear knowledge current through regular practice and development of skills in a safe environment.
Maintaining competence is a key requirement of the Electricity at Work Regulations, and we help organisations to support their engineers by providing appropriate initial training as well as refresher training at regular intervals. Above all, we instil the planning, professional discipline and routine associated with an HV switching operation to ensure engineers can carry out their work safely.

Latest Training School Testimonials
John Lorimer, FCS Services Ltd – Low Voltage Competent Persons course.
I’ve been in the electrical industry since 1998 with a good knowledge of electrical systems ✅. That ticks one box (Experience)
Now carrying out NETS® (Non-invasive Electrical Testing Solutions) I find myself being asked to prove qualifications AND competence.
So I decided to bolster my CPD with this accredited training from Horizon Engineering Solutions Ltd.
The facilities at Horizon Training are excellent, a great addition to NI 👏👏.
Michael Francis, Contour Global – High Voltage Power Systems Operations course.
Thanks to you all for your various inputs in making this week’s course so worthwhile & enjoyable.
Thomas Kelly, Contour Global.
Thanks Horizon Engineering Solutions Ltd for the excellent Management Awareness in Electrical Safety course this week. Recommend for any business leaders, with industrial electrical equipment.
Sandra Overend, Henry Brothers – Management Awareness in Electrical Safety
“We were very happy to work with Michael and Horizon Engineering, who delivered a bespoke training course in Management Awareness in Electrical Safety for a number of key personnel at Henry Brothers right across our UK sites. The feedback was very positive from all quarters describing the training as thorough and enlightening, with the content being ideal for our industry, creating a good understanding of the things that we will encounter, and with detailed course materials to take away.”
Delegates who are to be appointed under safety rules with responsibility for the operation, isolation and maintenance of mechanical and electrical plant.
Those who may be nominated as a Competent or Skilled Person within their organisation and need to demonstrate the appropriate level of experience of electrical and mechanical systems and electrical and mechanical principles and theory of safe operation.
Our courses will be structured around classroom-based activities and practical exercises over five days, with refresher training covered in three days. At the end of the course, engineers have the option to take a written and/or practical test, the results of which they can use as evidence of their training.
With a fully equipped training room and a practical training area complete with high and low voltage electrical switchgear and mechanical plant, the Horizon Engineering Training School is well placed to offer the specialist training that high voltage electrical engineers are required to undertake every three years.
Our electrical practical training area features a typical industrial substation equipped with HV and LV switchgear, key lock cabinets, control equipment and all the building and life safety systems that would typically be found in an industrial substation building. Access to the substation is via securely locked doors complete with all necessary identification and safety signage.
Our mechanical practical training area will feature a typical industrial facility equipped with Pumps, valves, pressure gauges, key lock cabinets, control equipment and all the building and life safety systems that would typically be found within an industrial building.
