Condition Monitoring Training Courses

Get more from your condition monitoring with practical training from the specialists in motor current and electrical signature analysis. Our courses give your engineers the skills to take readings with confidence, interpret the results and turn early fault warnings into planned maintenance, before breakdowns stop production.

Choose a 1-day course focused on using our systems, or a 2-day course that adds the full background in condition monitoring and electric motors. Both run at your site or remotely, for up to 12 delegates.

Duration: 2 days

Format: In-house at your site or remote

Equipment: P100 and Inpod

Price: £4,800 per course, up to 12 delegates

Certificate: Certificate of completion

Why train with Faraday Predictive

  1. Specialists in electrical signature analysis. Most condition monitoring training focuses on vibration. Ours is built around MBVI, our model-based form of motor current signature analysis (MCSA), which detects faults from the switchroom with no sensors on the machine.
  2. Taught by the people behind the technology. Our team developed MBVI, and our founder Geoff Walker received the 2026 COMADIT Award from BINDT for contributions to condition monitoring.
  3. Grounded in research. Our methods are backed by a mathematical study carried out with five UK universities through the European Study Group with Industry.
  4. Hands-on and practical. You’ll take live readings from a real motor or generator and diagnose faults using real-world data.

Who should attend?

  • Maintenance and reliability engineers
  • Plant technicians who take condition monitoring readings
  • Engineering and maintenance managers making decisions based on condition data
  • Existing Faraday Predictive customers, and organisations considering a P100 or Inpod system

What you’ll learn

By the end of the course you will be able to:

  • Use Faraday Predictive MBVI systems with confidence
  • Understand the signal capture process and talk confidently with plant staff about it
  • Interpret time waveforms and frequency spectra to identify developing faults
  • Turn diagnostic findings into clear maintenance actions and communicate them to decision makers
  • Explain the business case for condition monitoring and condition-based maintenance (2-day course)

Course content

Module What it covers 1-day 2-day
Maintenance strategy and the business case Why condition-based maintenance delivers the lowest total cost, and how to gain the benefit through action planning and communication ✓
MBVI and motor current signature analysis What MBVI is, what it does and how it works ✓ ✓
Electric motor basics Three-phase supply, induction and synchronous motors, slip, rotor asymmetry and common failure modes ✓
Hands-on measurement Taking readings from a real motor or generator using the P100 or Inpod ✓ ✓
Using the software A full walkthrough of the Faraday Predictive software, from capturing data to reading the results ✓ ✓
Signal processing and data Time-domain waveforms and frequency-domain spectra, Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT), and how sample rate and sample length affect spectral range and resolution. The alternative signals available for analysis, including raw, residual, phase and transformed currents ✓
Fault diagnosis Characteristic fault frequencies, amplitude trending and hands-on diagnostics using real-world data ✓ ✓

Best for Teams who need to start using a P100 or Inpod quickly Engineers who will interpret results and build the case for condition-based maintenance
Group size Up to 12 delegates; at least 6 recommended Up to 12 delegates; at least 6 recommended
Certificate Certificate of completion for every delegate Certificate of completion for every delegate
Price £2,400 per course £4,800 per course

Prices are for the whole course, not per delegate, and are the same in-person or remote. For training at your site, travel and subsistence are added.

Why we recommend 6 to 12 delegates: six people is enough to get real discussion going about the faults your team sees; more than 12 makes the hands-on sessions run long.

Course formats

In-house training at your site. We deliver the course at your site, for your team. In-house courses can be tailored to the equipment you run and the issues you typically face, so the training matches your day-to-day work. Hands-on sessions use your own motors where possible.

Remote training. We deliver the same course live online, in 2-hour sessions spread over one to two weeks. Shorter sessions fit around shifts and give your team time to apply what they learn between sessions. The price is the same, with no travel costs.

How to book

  1. Get in touch. Call us or send an enquiry with the number of delegates and your preferred format.
  2. Tailor your course. For in-house training, we’ll discuss your equipment and goals to shape the content.
  3. Train your team. Two days of practical, hands-on learning, with course materials to keep.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. The course suits existing customers and organisations considering a P100 or Inpod. It’s also a practical introduction to motor current signature analysis in general.

Vibration analysis uses sensors mounted on the machine. Our training focuses on electrical signature analysis, which detects mechanical, electrical and process faults from the motor’s supply, with no sensors on the equipment. Many teams use both techniques together.

Yes. In-house courses can be delivered at your site and tailored to your equipment.

The 1-day System and Software course is £2,400 and the 2-day Full Condition Monitoring course is £4,800. Prices cover the whole group of up to 12 delegates, not each person. Travel and subsistence are added for courses at your site.

Up to 12 delegates per course. We recommend at least 6, which is enough to get good discussion going without the hands-on sessions overrunning.

Yes. Remote courses run live online in 2-hour sessions spread over one to two weeks, at the same price as in-person training and with no travel costs.

Yes. Every delegate receives a certificate of completion.

Choose the 1-day course if your team needs to start using a P100 or Inpod quickly. Choose the 2-day course if your engineers will interpret results, diagnose faults in depth or build the business case for condition-based maintenance.
