Course description

Course Brief: A Basic Electrical Control Circuits Operation and Troubleshooting training course is designed to teach individuals how electrical control circuits operate, how to maintain and troubleshoot them, and how to ensure that electrical control systems function reliably in industrial or commercial settings. This course is designed to provide participants with foundational knowledge and hands-on experience in operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting basic electrical control circuits commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential settings. Participants will learn the essential components, principles, and techniques involved in controlling electrical circuits safely and effectively. This course would ensure that participants understand not only how to operate electrical control circuits but also how to identify and fix faults effectively and safely.
