Please note that this is a THREE-DAY class, and has the same start and end times on ALL THREE days:
-Thursday, March 5th
-Thursday, March 12th
-Thursday, March 19th
In the Understanding Home Electrical set of classes, students will be given detailed and hands-on instruction in-class with some take-home (optional) "assignments". The "homework" will help you demystify your own personal electrical situation, diagnose more accurately when you need to call a professional, and can lead to significant savings when you have to bring in a pro.
This class can be taken in lieu of our single-session Intro to Electrical and our GFCI & 3-way Switches classes. While these single sessions will remain available for some time, we recommend this more comprehensive course in order to make the most of our educational offerings and to maximize your personal awesomeness :)
Skill level: This class is built for beginners.
- Learn how to safely replace outlets, switches, and light fixtures. These simple skills can save you tons on an electrician's bill or a home remodel. Lots of hands-on practice along with loads of info to help you decide which projects to tackle yourself, and when to ask for expert help.
- Learn how to map your home's entire electrical system in order to make diagnosing common problems a snap and equipping you with the knowledge and groundwork to save money and time when you do need to call a professional.
- What is a GFCI? How do I install/repair a 3-way switch? We'll go through each of these in detail and this will help you make decisions on your personal home electrical system.
