Electrical Systems Troubleshooting
Question
Does your maintenance department have the most effective electrical circuit troubleshooting skills? If not, you may be spending too much on downtime and avoidable parts.

This course is designed to help electrical troubleshooters focus their logic and make a minimal number of meter tests. With a clear methodical process, troubleshooting under the stress of unplanned downtime can be carried out efficiently and effectively.

The ‘Ten Step Troubleshooting Process’ is taught with the goal of eliminating the “hit and miss” methods that can be so costly in terms of time and materials. Safety is stressed along with sound maintenance practices. This two-day course is taught with circuit simulation software and through instructor guided hands-on study of troubleshooting methods.

Course Outcomes :

Participants come away from my course having had the opportunity to test and mentally “burn in” a method that will allow them to work with more clarity and confidence when the pressure that comes with breakdowns is on. The result is a more efficient troubleshooting team with downtime costs significantly reduced.
