Introduction to Electrical Systems
Basic Training Package
Two-day course, (16 hours)
This course uses hands-on, activity-based exercises to develop a basic understanding
of electrical theory, components, circuits, Altec wiring diagrams, and the use of a Digital
Volt Ohm Meter (DVOM). It will also cover safety, interpretation and testing applications.
Technicians will progress through the basics of schematics, and wiring principles and testing
procedures. They will utilize a DVOM and learn when test lights can safely be used. The
course will culminate with a hands-on lab for technicians to apply theoretical learning to
situational applications with equipment and live circuits.
