Our classes meet or exceed the OSHA and NFPA requirements.
We are happy to customize a course to suit your needs.

NFPA 70E Training (Full day and 1/2 day options)
We offer a full day in depth training of the 70E along with a 1/2 day refresher course. For first timers we recommend the 8hr class. OSHA and the 70E require annual refresher classes and the 4 hr meets this requirement to stay compliant.
Both classes focus on shock, arc and blast hazards including teaching methods of energy mitigation and the use of safe PPE. These classes are an absolute must for all workers exposed to 50 volts or more.
All of our courses start with a review of electrical safety and the dangers of shock and arc blast.

NEC for Industrial and Manufacturing Facilities (Full day class)
I have spent hours combing thru the NEC to find information and requirments applicable to industrial facilities.
In this class we will go over the purpose and scope, basic structure of the book and each chapter, definitions applicable to industry, general installation requirements,
switchboards panleboards, labeling requirments, conduit and tube fill ratios, overcurrent protection, working spaces, electrical rooms,
grounding and bonding, cables and raceways, branch and feeder circuits, motors and motor circuits, GFCI's, high leg appliactions, service equipment, disconnect rules,
arc energy reduction, surge arrestors, conductor ampacities, overhead busway rules, extension cords and power strips usages, industrial control panels,
explosion and flammable categories, cranes, X-rays, special occupancies, and using the tables.
Introduction to Industrial Troubleshooting (1/2 day class)
This class is designed for a new maintenance worker who needs help with getting started in electrical troubleshooting and repair.
A review of volts, amps, resistance along with Ohms and Watts Laws.
I review No and NC contacts, control transformers, breakers, fuses, switches, push buttons, relays, contactors, limit switches, prox switches, soleniods etc.
How to Safely use your Meter (1/2 day class)
Using an electrical meter safely is a fundamental of being an electrician. The 70E requires that any person working within the limited approach boundary of exposed energized electrical conductors operating at 50 volts or more shall at a minimum be able to distinguish exposed energized parts from other equipment and also have the skills and techniques necessary to determine the nominal voltage of these exposed energized parts.
Don't let taking voltage readings scare you. In this class we go over volts, amps, ohms and watts. Once the student understands each of these and their relationships using Ohms and Watts Laws he is on a good starting path of troubleshooting.
This class will give you the knowledge and confidence to use your meter safely and correctly. Bring your meter to class and let us teach you how to safely inspect it and use it. If you are working on exposed and energized parts this class is a must.
