The Industrial Electrical Systems training course develops the skills required by industrial maintenance technicians to safely diagnose and repair faults in electrically controlled equipment. We offer a uniquely practical course focused on replicating real-life scenarios using specialist industrial equipment and troubleshooting simulation software. We also provide a comprehensive suite of online learning activities which enable deep learning and excellent retention of skills learned. Students are given full access to our materials when they register on the course so they can dive straight in to our materials which will help them prepare for the course and get the most out of it.
Programme Description
The course develops the skills required by industrial maintenance technicians to safely diagnose and repair faults in electrically controlled production equipment. We offer a uniquely practical course focused on replicating real-life scenarios using specialist industrial equipment and troubleshooting simulation software. We also provide a comprehensive suite of online learning activities which enable deep learning and excellent retention of skills learned. Students are given full access to our materials when they register on the course so they can dive straight in to our materials which will help them prepare for the course and get the most out of it.
Who should attend?
Those who want to upskill and develop electrical knowledge in order to pursue a career in a production environment or industrial maintenance personnel who would like to increase their electrical troubleshooting skills. You do not need to be formally qualified as an electrician to do this course. So, whether you are starting a career in industrial maintenance, or you are already engaged in maintenance of equipment systems but want to develop your skills further, this training course is ideal for you.
Correct diagnosis of electrical systems faults saves time and money in the long run. And, effective troubleshooters add great value to the organisation they work for. Learning to work safely with electrical equipment is central to the course and qualification means that you have demonstrated your competence as required in Health and Safety legislation. This internationally-recognised qualification will present opportunities to work in diverse areas within the manufacturing environment carrying out the diagnosing and repair/replacement of components.
Objectives
To enable maintenance staff to be effective in the use of preventative and corrective maintenance strategies when working on modern industrial electrical systems and components. At the end of the Industrial Electrical Systems course the participants will be able to:
- Test electrical systems to narrow down a problem area.
- Identify hazards and perform duties in a way that minimises potential accidents
- Use electrical schematics to navigate a system effectively.
- Carry out LOTO procedures correctly.
- Explain how circuit protection devices work and are activated by equipment faults.
- Competently use multi-meters and grip-on meters to test systems.
- Test 3-phase motor circuits controlled by contactors and overloads.
- Troubleshoot a range of common faults on work- based technology.
Course modules
1. Electrical concepts & units
- Electrical characteristics of conductors and insulators
- The behaviour of voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in circuits
- Using Ohm’s law to predict circuit behaviour
- Using a multimeter to measure V, I, and R
- Kirchoff’s current law
- Voltages and currents at different points in circuits
- Faulty components and open or short circuits
- Correct specification language to describe switchgear in terms of poles and throws
2. Electrical safety awareness
- Potential hazards associated with electrical equipment
- Appropriate precautions for different scenarios
- How electricity affects the human body
- When it is necessary to work LIVE

5. Navigating electrical schematics to troubleshoot
- Using schematics to see how power is distributed
- Interpreting symbols and navigating both US and EU drawings
- Using electrical schematics to effectively troubleshoot
- Test electrical systems to narrow down a problem area.
- Identify hazards and perform duties in a way that minimises potential accidents
- Use electrical schematics to navigate a system effectively.
- Carry out LOTO procedures correctly.
- Explain how circuit protection devices work and are activated by equipment faults.
- Competently use multi-meters and grip-on meters to test systems.
- Test 3-phase motor circuits controlled by contactors and overloads.
