Electrical Controls Troubleshooting
Extensive Hands-On Training teaches you the “Tricks-of-the-Trade.”
Hands-On Electrical Troubleshooting Training -
Here it is!
This is our award winning class that is one of the most popular training programs running.
If you have ever wondered how those electricians are able to find problems fast… Here is how you can learn!
Students will learn how to safely and effectively find and fix problems found in electrical control circuits and systems. Using real test meters to troubleshoot real powered circuits, each student will take what they have learned and put it to use in class… and on the job the very next day!
Students will learn the tricks of the electrical trade from instructors who have done the work… No hipe here… Just Straight Talk!
Learn to troubleshoot by doing it!
This Two-Day class covers:
Day One: Troubleshooting Industrial Electricity I
- Safety First!
- OSHA Requirements regarding troubleshooting
- Understanding and Using Electrical Drawings
- Using Meters and taking measurements
- How these common components work and how to troubleshoot them: Starters, Relays, Transformers, Capacitors, Switches, Limit Switches, and more…
Understanding a systematic method to finding a failure in a circuit. The majority of this class is spent working on real powered electrical panels with real electrical components. The Instructor will place “Real World” bugs or failures in the circuit. Using the methods learned in this class, the students will use their meters and instruments to find, and actually fix the problem. Real failures…real results.
Day Two: Troubleshooting Industrial Electricity II
- Troubleshooting more complex components such as: Timers, Electronic Sensors, Proximity Sensors, Motor Overload Devices, Heating Elements, Thermal Switches. Remote Stations, and More…
- Understanding Complex Ladder Diagram Symbols
- Troubleshooting Three-Phase Motors
- Insulation tests using a Megger
- Troubleshooting using more advanced Devices and Circuits
This second day reflects the same methodology in troubleshooting by adding more complex components and circuits. This training prepares a maintenance person with the knowledge needed to quickly find and repair the failures that are found everyday in industrial facilities. The Hands-On approach allows the student to practice what he or she is learning, building the needed confidence to make them a better, faster troubleshooter!
