Master PAT Testing and Electrical Circuits with one expert-led course. Ideal for electricians, landlords, and electrical enthusiasts.
Overview
This two-in-one course blends the essentials of PAT Testing with the foundational knowledge of Electrical Circuits and Systems, giving learners a strong theoretical grasp of how electrical systems operate and how to test them safely. With carefully structured modules, you'll gain a sharp understanding of current flow, circuit components, wiring systems, insulation resistance, and safety protocols essential for testing portable appliances.
By pairing PAT Testing with Electrical Circuit theory, learners are able to connect diagnostic understanding with real fault detection, allowing for more accurate assessments and informed decisions. Whether you’re brushing up your electrical basics or preparing to work in roles where regular appliance testing is expected, this combined training delivers both depth and clarity – minus the fluff and filler. Each segment is crafted with precision for learners aiming to grow their technical insight through structured remote study.
