There's always more to simply learning core curriculum knowledge! Any form of skills training teaches you how to approach a problem, analysing its cause and knowing how to supply the correct solution. This is never more applicable when training to be an electrician.Many who decide to enter the industry, either at the start of their working lives or switching at mid-career, gain much more than simply memorising information, when learning the approach to practising electrical installation and repairs.Training to identify root causes of electrical faults is a standard, logical process normally carried out by a fully trained electrician - and not forgetting the vital importance of thinking about safety first, i.e. by checking every wire to see if it is live before touching it, and wearing rubber-soled boots to avoid electrocution.Studying on an Electrician training course at a fully >approved training centre will emphasise time and again the correct working procedures and methods which are always accompanied by observation of the required Health and Safety and Building Regulation rulings and instructions. Adhering strictly to the rules when working with any electrical repair, no matter how minor will prevent a serious or fatal injury!A student studying on the City & Guilds Electrical NVQ 2330 Level 2 entry course soon learns the three steps to approaching an electrical repair: identify the problem, locate the source and repair it. All three steps can be applied to any electrical problem.Mastering problem-solving skills are a key foundation of becoming a fully trained and certified, competent electrician, who will also be able to read drawing plans for all electrical wiring and equipment. This aspect is critically important when embarking upon more complex electrical projects, say, in a domestic rewire or installing in commercial premises.With the arrival of new green energy technology in lighting and heating, being able to understand how to integrate and properly install equipment will be dependent on correct practical training and a properly thought-out approach.
