• Gas Turbine Systems Electrical/Electrician's Mate Apprentice Technical Training:

-from 15-MAY-2020 to 05-JUN-2020 in Great Lakes,IL

This course provides students information on direct current (DC) and analog current (AC) electrical circuits, including basic mathematics as it relates to electrical circuits, color code, circuit element symbols, Ohm's Law, calculations as they relate to series, parallel, and series-parallel circuits. Additionally, content addressing how to identify electrical faults, use of an oscilloscope; safety practices; introduction to an electronic signal, i.e. DC (step) and sinusoidal; and frequency sensitive devices and their identifications (capacitors and inductors). Introduction to p-n junction (diode) and half-wave and full-wave rectifiers, and a foundation in relays, transformers, DC and AC motors, generators, and their operations and troubleshooting.

• Electrician's Mate "A" School:

-from 06-JUL-2020 to 24-JUL-2020 in Great Lakes,IL

This course provides students with the knowledge and skills to operate, maintain, troubleshoot, and repair electrical systems, including: generators, electrical distribution equipment, lighting, motors, and appliances.

• Electric Motor Rewind:

-from 11-JUL-2022 to 16-AUG-2022 in Norfolk, VA

This course provides students with the skills and knowledge to test, disassemble, rewind, and reassemble single phase and three phase AC electrical motors. Rewind AC and DC motor and generator stators, rotors, field coils, and armatures utilizing round wire or formed coils. Takes rewinding data, replaces brushes, adjusts brush rigging, dips, bakes, renews bearings, assembles, and test runs

• As a Electrician's Mates (EM) I've stood watch on generators, switchboards, control equipment, and electrical equipment; operated and performed organizational and intermediate maintenance on various power and lighting circuits, electrical fixtures, motors, generators, voltage and frequency regulators, controllers, distribution switchboards and other electrical equipment; test for short circuits and grounds; and rebuilt electrical equipment, including solid state circuitry elements. I am also able to demonstrate the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in an electrical circuit; recognize the dangers of human contact with energized electrical circuits; use personal protective equipment (PPE) in the maintenance of electrical circuits; interpret electrical system schematics; troubleshoot electrical circuits to determine causes of improper voltage or current; interpret readings on digital and analog mulitmeters; demonstrate an understanding of electrical interlocks and safety tagout procedures; identified the major parts of utility systems; discussed mechanical design considerations to meet codes and standards; explained electrical consideration for utility lines; explained power distribution systems, including generator equipment, plant distribution, and protective devices; performed calculations of fault currents and system loads; planned, organized, and lead multiple work teams; scheduled work and checked progress; train subordinates and developed training schedules; mentor and provide feedback; solve problems; assist in preparing performance evaluations; and lead, direct, and control subordinates.

Also completed the following in depth:

• Worked from ladders, scaffolds and lifts to install, maintain, or repair electrical wiring equipment and lighting fixtures in ceilings, on roofs and on towers.
• Installed and wired electrical transformers, service panels, and circuit breakers.
• Inspected electrical systems, equipment and components to identify hazards, defects, and repair requirements.
• Used testing instruments such as ohmmeters, voltmeters, ammeters, and multimeters.
• Performed routine and complex maintenance and repairs on various electrical equipment.
• Coordinated with other tradespeople seamlessly during large-scale installations or renovations to ensure smooth project progressions.
• Provided exceptional customer service through clear communication, accurate estimates, and timely project completion.
• Elevated team skill levels by leading workshops on latest electrical technologies and safety practices.
