EECON 2017

Safearth are pleased to be presenting at EECON 2017 in Melbourne on 22-23 November. Our director Stephen Palmer will present on “What has the introduction of quantified risk changed for earthing and what does the future hold?” You can read the abstract here.

Stephen is also running a one-day workshop titled “Introduction to Earthing”, along with Dr Bill Carman from BC2, the day before the conference. This will provide an introductory level understanding of the principles governing how to create and maintain earthing systems that meet both safety and performance requirements.

We’ll also have an exhibition stand where you can see some of our test equipment and talk to us about your needs.
