This three day course combines the essential knowledge and understanding of safe electrical good practice with
"hands on" experience of using the necessary tools and equipment. The course is ideal for technical staff who may not be qualified
electricians but require the basic knowledge in order to disconnect, reconnect and diagnose faults safely on electrical equipment.
First class technical facilities are provided where candidates can develop their installation and/or maintenance
skills and knowledge in realistic simulations.
A full range of current and latest design of appliances, systems, controls and equipment is also freely available for
candidates to use and work with.
