Description
In this course you will get an breif description of how electricty is made and how that creation reacts as it goes through its delivery to the devices we commonly see and use. Understanding the reaction of electricity and how each component reacts will give you a better ability to understand failures. When you have a failure, you will know why. Electricity uses a series of magnetic fields to get to the components we work with, those magentic fields induce the work being done on our end. In each Component section we will describe how the component works in its simplest form. The course is designed to avoid heavy confusing equations typically used in electrical design but still touching on some easy to use equations commonly used. This course covers how electric flows, what it flows through and what it does not flow through. It covers how to use typical meters. It covers some basic readings to use with your meter. It covers testing of each component we describe, again in the simplest way possible.  This course also covers some applications components may be used in and some common failures. This course also covers common connectors, insulation and wire types.

Who this course is for:
Mechanical repair technicians, HVAC Technicians, New Electricians, Electrical, Maintenance Repair, Any one with Curiosity about how electricity reacts in components., Food Equipment Repair, Refrigeration Repair, Electronics, Electric
