“Playing with the ISC D4 and Petzl ASAP lock on a Saferight CDD rigged as a releasable anchor during tower rescue refreshers using a Skylotek tower harness with a Capital Safety ropesafe on standby,” informs Murray.
“I have run transmission lines and helicopter safety training in an international environment, with successful training and mentoring of Chinese line workers on site in Southern China for Aeropower, an aerial live line service provider for both Australian and International electrical companies.
I am also a Senior Trainer for field risk management theory and applications within the electrical industry, and am able to translate my 30 plus years of practical field based work into the classroom environment,” Murray adds.
