Why Choose this Training Course?
Electrical equipment and devices are vital in all electrical installation so as to ensure continuity and efficient operations. The primary and basic tool for troubleshooting and maintenance of an electrical installation is to understand and interpret electrical drawings and ladder diagrams.
Electrical symbols, schematic and wiring diagrams facilitate the operations of the electrical installation equipment. This course will cover all these aspects with respect to electrical blueprint reading and tracing of circuits.
This course will familiarise engineers and technicians with the various standards and practices, and help to understand the power flow and equipment installed. Fitted diagrams and ladder diagrams will be presented to correlate with the electrical equipment installed. Tracing of electrical circuits with the relevant wiring diagrams will be demonstrated to ensure correct methods of troubleshooting.
This course will highlight:
- The interpretation and understanding of standard electrical symbols
- The characteristics of single line diagrams
- The importance of ladder diagrams
- Using diagrams for circuit tracing
- Troubleshooting electrical system using diagrams
