This class is designed to take you from a basic electrical technician to understanding the concepts to an advanced level by working on real cars, including scopes, meters, wiring repair, and more. There will be 6-10 hours of required pre-study, and then 16 hours of in-person learning at ACDC&#8217;s training center. ACDC has been the pioneer in xEV training for over 25 years, and without a thorough understanding of electricity and electronics, the mastery of electric vehicles would be out of reach. There\u2019s no class like this anywhere. It\u2019s unique and amazing!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Equipment you will be exposed to at ACDC includes PICO scopes, Bosch electrical meters, insulation testers, relay testers, milliohm meters, current probes, information resources, wiring diagrams, troubleshooting techniques, and more. Each work group is less than four people. The maximum number of students is 12. Be ready for digesting lots of new processes, but we will not be feeding you from a fire hose.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will receive a 200-page electrical training manual weeks before the class begins.\u00a0 You will also get an email for 3 hours of online study.
