Electrician Training
Provides instructional skills training in electrical wiring for lighting, equipment, motors, and heating.
The electrician training program is often used as a stepping stone in electrician education for trainees who want to move on to electrical maintenance or construction, or enter an apprentice program.
This electrician course covers the installation, maintenance, and repair of electrical equipment. All enrolled trainees should have mastered the courses covered in the Basic Electrical Training program.
Upon completion of the Electrician Training program, trainees will be able to:
- Recognize the basic electrical symbols used on electrical schematics and wiring plans.
- Describe how to bend and install conduit.
- Explain the operation and construction of motors, generators, and transformers.
- Use the National Electrical Code handbook effectively.
- Select the correct type of lamp needed for a given application.
- Size and select conductors for a given installation.
- Calculate electrical equipment ratings based on electrical loads.
- Test for opens, shorts, and grounds.
