Pragmatic Consulting and Alcomet Join Forces to Deliver Industry-Leading Technical Training

Pragmatic Consulting has partnered with Alcomet to deliver EUSR-aligned substation training, combining practical equipment expertise with accredited courses. The collaboration supports engineers, managers, and contractors in applying best practice on-site safely and confidently, covering impressed voltage, insulated working, and substation safety.

Pragmatic Consulting, a specialist provider of technical training for the construction & utilities industries, is proud to announce a new partnership with Alcomet, a leading supplier of substation and earthing equipment. This collaboration brings together Alcomet’s real-world product expertise with Pragmatic’s accredited, hands-on training to improve competence, consistency, and safety across the energy sector.

The partnership centres on a suite of EUSR-aligned courses that directly support the safe design, installation, and operation of earthing systems and substation infrastructure, including:

•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 training pathway ensures that understanding of impressed voltage, insulated working, and substation safety is consistent, up-to-date, and directly linked to the equipment and systems in use. It supports operatives, supervisors, managers, and designers in applying best practice on-site with confidence.

Putting Safety and Confidence First

Chris Beasley, Managing Director of Alcomet, commented:

"Safety equipment is only effective when it’s properly understood and correctly applied. Partnering with Pragmatic Consulting ensures that the equipment we supply is supported by training that reflects real-world needs."

Jo Niblett, Managing Director of Pragmatic Consulting, added:

"This collaboration connects accredited training directly with the tools and systems people rely on daily. Our goal is to remove ambiguity and support safer, more consistent working practices across the industry."

Together, Pragmatic Consulting and Alcomet aim to support TNOs, DNOs, IDNOs, and contractors in improving competence, compliance, and site safety—ensuring that knowledge, equipment, and best practice work hand-in-hand.
