Mining Electrical Safety Conference 2012
The Mine Electrical Safety Association (MESA) will be holding its 23rd Annual conference at the Sebel King George Square hotel, Brisbane from 4-6 July 2012.
The event brings together government departments, consultants, suppliers and key industry decision-makers within the electrical field to hear technical presentations on all matters relating to electrical safety within the mining industry. A trade exhibition for the benefit of the delegates is also conducted in conjunction with the conference.
A few of the key focus topics are safety of handheld meters for electrical testing, welding safety and maintenance. For over 20 years the MESA, or the Mine Electrical Safety Committee (MESC) as it was originally known, has been an integral conduit between the working face of the industry - suppliers and government legalisation departments - in identifying electrical safety problems and, by consultation, providing information with a view to improving safety and productivity.
