Updated information from DSB on the implementation of FSE and first aid courses in 2022 (in norwegian):
Completed theoretical courses for FSE-training, including first aid in 2021 and first half of 2022, will be accepted as valid statutory training for 12 months.
Goal
This course helps participants develop a greater awareness of electrical safety thus reducing the risk of injury and material damage. Course participants receive practical training in first aid (CPR) for victims of electrical accidents.
Target group
Electricians and automation technicians who work with and carry out maintenance on low-voltage electrical plants.

- A closer look at central sections in FSE
- Why is it necessary to have regulations related to safety with work and operation of low-voltage plants?
- Consequences of electric shock and electric arc injuries
- Central injury statistics
- Human error
- Safety thinking
- Protective equipment
- How to behave at the scene of the accident
- Priorities and treatment
