Automation Electrical Troubleshooting
Electrical Fundamentals & Troubleshooting
This course helps students solidify the fundamentals of electricity and understand common electrical faults through a combination of classroom instruction, simulated activities, and hands-on circuit work.
Students will review the core concepts of voltage, resistance, and current using both simulated and real-life circuits, and explore how these elements interact through the equations of Ohm’s Law.
The course also focuses on identifying how common electrical faults affect circuits—including loss of voltage, bad neutral pathways, broken components, and shorts to ground—and how to systematically diagnose these issues.
Troubleshooting Methodology
Students will learn and apply the Bridgerland Troubleshooting Methodology in both real and simulated circuits.
Each student will receive a Bridgerland Troubleshooting Methodology booklet and a 4-month license to Simutech troubleshooting software.
