Fault Finding and Repair of Industrial Electrical Equipment

Downtime often comes down to how quickly a technician can locate and repair an electrical fault. This programme builds a logical fault finding method that works across motors, controls, wiring and instrumentation. Delegates practise using test instruments and drawings to trace problems to their root cause.
