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.
