This two-day course discusses typical commercial electrical
systems from the building input through switchgear, bus ducts, motor control
centers, electrical distribution panels, breakers, UPS and backup battery
systems. Examples of typical electrical problems and their potential impact on
the operation of the facility are given and discussed in detail. How to
perform inspections and prepare reports are discussed in light of equipment
needed, safety and efficiency. We also discuss how to market and sell your
services.
