LVR Training Courses Mildura

What is LVR training?

Low Voltage Rescue training focuses on the real-world steps required to manage electrical risk and extract a casualty from a live low-voltage panel using insulated rescue tools. It’s usually delivered alongside current CPR because electric shock incidents can quickly become life-threatening. After the rescue, you must follow the DRSABCD action plan, provide CPR, and use an AED where needed.

Units of competency included

Low Voltage Rescue unit

• UETDRMP018 – Perform rescue from a live low voltage panel (commonly recognised as replacing UETDRRF004 during unit changes).

CPR unit

• HLTAID009 – Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation, including adult CPR and defibrillation as part of DRSABCD.

If you’re successful, you’ll receive a Statement of Attainment issued by Allens Training Pty Ltd (RTO 90909).

Who is LVR training in Mildura for?

LVR & CPR is aimed at workers who may be on or around live low-voltage equipment, including:

• Electricians and electrical workers
• Apprentices and supervised staff
• Solar and electrical maintenance teams
• Contractors, facilities and shutdown crews
• ESI-related roles (distribution, transmission, rail and similar work)
• Spotters who must observe live work and respond immediately if something goes wrong

In and around Mildura, many employers treat current LVR and CPR as a key requirement before workers are cleared for certain tasks.

Prerequisites and what you’ll need

Because LVR is an electrical rescue unit, you may be asked to provide evidence of an electrical background. Common examples include:

• A current unrestricted electrical licence, or
• An electrotechnology / ESI qualification, or
• Relevant safety/WHS units (often referenced examples include UEECD0007 or UETDREL006)

You’ll also need:

• A Unique Student Identifier (USI) for nationally recognised certification
• Photo ID
• The ability to complete practical rescue and CPR tasks (see assessment requirements below)

Skills you’ll practise in LVR and CPR

Low Voltage Rescue procedure

You’ll practise a practical rescue response that includes:

• Checking hazards and confirming it’s safe to proceed
• Isolating power where safe and possible
• Using insulated rescue equipment to pull the casualty clear
• Moving the casualty to a safe area for first response

CPR, AED and DRSABCD response

You’ll demonstrate:

• DRSABCD decision-making
• Adult CPR compressions and breaths
• AED set-up and safe operation
• Clear communication during a live-work emergency scenario

What’s in a Low Voltage Rescue Kit?

Kits vary by workplace, but commonly include:

• An insulated rescue hook/crook
• Insulated gloves
• A fire-resistant blanket
• A CPR mask/face shield

Training covers when to use the kit and how to handle it safely.

Duration and delivery

Most combined LVR & CPR options include:

• Self-paced online theory (often around 1.5–3 hours), and
• A face-to-face practical session (commonly around 3.5–4.5 hours)

Because you must demonstrate competency, LVR training can’t be completed entirely online.

Practical assessment requirements

To be deemed competent, you’ll need to complete:

• A simulated rescue from a low-voltage panel, and
• Two minutes of uninterrupted single-rescuer CPR (five cycles of 30 compressions to 2 breaths) on an adult manikin positioned on the floor

If you have a condition or injury that may affect kneeling or compressions, plan ahead before booking.
