Electrical Certification

This four day course is designed for the experienced technician with at least 3 - 5 years experience working with marine electricity. The student needs to be very familiar with ABYC electrical standards. Course topics include electrical theory, lead-acid batteries, using a multi-meter, battery testing, generator sets, inverters, grounding and bonding systems, troubleshooting and more. At the time of registration, each student will be shipped a Study Guide which should be studied prior to class along with the ABYC Electrical standards. The class concludes with a 200 question certification exam.

You will need to bring your Study Guide and your copy of the ABYC Standards manual to the course. If you do not have access to an ABYC Standards manual, please contact the Education Department to purchase this textbook.
