A year after the Safe Isolation Simulator won its Top Product Award, Professional Electrician caught up with James Cornet to see how it had developed. The feature was published on 15 October 2025.
A year of growth
Since the launch, James has visited colleges and training centres across the UK. Colleges were early adopters, and larger engineering firms have since shown interest. The team has been building the Tradefox app, refining the simulations’ mechanics and interface, and acting on feedback from the people who use them.
James was clear that simulation complements hands-on training rather than replacing it: it gives learners a safe, repeatable way to build confidence between practical sessions.
What came next
The feature previewed new simulations, including one for diverted neutral current testing, and a Premium subscription giving full access to Tradefox’s training. The base training stays free on iOS, Android and the web.
