Essential Electrical Skills

We don’t call it Essential Electrical Skills for nothing. Understanding electrics is an absolute must for all technicians. In this suite of chapters, you’ll learn about how voltage pushes current through all the resistances which make up electrical circuits. You’ll learn how to work out what voltages you should measure throughout circuits, and you’ll learn how to use your multimeter to make meaningful measurements. We can’t stress it enough, this course is truly essential.

It includes:

  • Voltage, Current and Resistance
  • Types of Circuit
  • The Differences Between DC and AC
  • Facts about Voltage
  • Fact One Explained
  • Fact Two Explained
  • Fact Three Explained
  • Fact Four Explained
  • Ohm’s Law
  • NTC Coolant Temperature Sensor Circuit
  • Why Use Volt Drop?
  • Relays
  • Calculating Resistance of Series Circuits
  • Current Flow Through Parallel Circuits
  • Current Flow and the Unrestricted Path
  • Calculating Identical Parallel Resistances
  • Calculating Differing Parallel Resistances
  • Wiring Batteries into Circuits
  • Watt’s Law

After watching all this training there is a detailed skills test which covers all that you have learned. If you can pass this, you will be well on your path to being a diagnostic ninja!
