Introduction - Electrical Systems

Checking simple things first can save valuable time and money. The Basic Electrical Theory course is not designed to replace specialist Electrical Engineers, but will allow good Technicians to develop their skills and allow them to undertake some basic fault finding steps, before calling for specialist help if required. The majority of faults are usually minor, not requiring the involvement of a specialist engineer whose time is already at a premium. 

This course will introduce trainees to the basic requirements for electrical fault finding techniques, using the principles of Ohm’s Law and encouraging the use of a digital multimeter. Electrical and diagnostic specialists are coming under greater pressure; therefore all technicians should have a good understanding of electrical fault finding of the vehicles low voltage systems.

This two day course is aimed at technicians involved in the maintenance and repair of Alexander Dennis buses. Trainees will be encouraged to develop their understanding by participating in practical exercises and discussion throughout the course.

Each delegate will receive a free digital multimeter to encourage them to practice their new skills.
