Electrical Course 101

Basic HVAC Electrical

Ratings: 4.60 / 5.00




Description

This course is designed to introduce a technician to the principles of electricity. If you are new to the field or have the experience, take my class to refresh your memory of the following:

  • What electricity is, how electricity works.

  • What components make up a circuit.

  • How circuits operate.

  • What has to happen for an electrical component to operate properly.


There are no requirements to take this course except to be willing to learn about electricity, how it works and how to control it to make it work for us.

Electricity is hard to understand because you cannot see it; you cannot smell it, and touching it is one thing you don't want to do. You should take this course so that I can help you understand how electricity works, where electricity comes from, how it gets to you, and how we can make electricity work for us. I tell technicians who take my class: "electricity is very lazy. We need to make it work for us and work properly." Take my class, and I will get you on the road to understanding, troubleshooting and repairing electrical components in an HVAC unit.


Working with electricity is much more than just knowing how to install or repair electrical equipment or HVAC electrical components. By taking the Basic Electricity course, you will be equipped with the proper techniques and safety skills to lead you to your professional success.
