Program Details
Electrician Apprenticeship
Western Technical College
Electricians plan, diagram, install, and repair electrical fixtures, apparatus, and control equipment such as switches, relays, and circuit breaker panels. They measure, cut, bend, thread, assemble, and install electrical conduit (pipe or tubing), and pull wire through conduit. They test continuity of circuits to ensure compatibility and safety of components, using instruments; such as the ohmmeter, megger, and other testing equipment. Electricians assemble, install, and wire electrical systems that operate heating, lighting, power, air conditioning, and refrigeration components; electrical machinery; electronic equipment and controls; and signal and communication systems. For safety, electricians must also become familiar with the National Electrical Code, designed to protect persons and property from hazards arising from the use of electricity. This program aligns with the ABC-WI electrical apprenticeship training standards and NCCER curriculum for electrical levels 1-4.
