Industrial Training

IEC’s electrical training services follow National Electrical Safety Code (NESC), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), National Electrical Code (NEC), the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and other industry codes and standards regarding:

Electrical workers must follow the Electrical Safety Model to ensure employees are safe before, during and after electrical work is executed. The Electrical Safety Model — recognizing hazards, evaluating risks and controlling hazards — helps electrical workers create a safe work environment.

IEC’s electrical training services in Central California and Western Nevada incorporate electrical safety programs to highlight safe practices. This training spotlights the importance of notifying trainers or supervisors about hazards in the workplace.

Many companies work hard to ensure they are compliant with electrical safety to avoid violations and other issues. Understanding electrical compliance is essential for keeping workers safe from electrical hazards.

Regulatory agencies, including OSHA and NFPA, are responsible for outlining standards and requirements for electrical companies to follow to avoid penalties such as fines.

Various organizations and agencies have outlined electrical compliance requirements tailored to specific situations or industries. Examples of electrical compliance regulations include:

• Wiring types: To ensure safety, electrical workers must use proper materials in electrical equipment.
• Material quality: Electrical equipment must be replaced or repaired anytime it is damaged to remain in compliance.
• Wire length: Electrical wire length may depend on factors such as how much current is used.

Industrial Electrical Company’s electrical training services help individuals gain the skills and knowledge needed to begin a career in Electrical/Mechanical Industrial Maintenance. This field is especially suited to people who love a challenge and hands-on work. IEC’s electrical maintenance training program covers troubleshooting and electrical fundamentals, blueprints, troubleshooting, programmable logic controllers, variable frequency drives and general electrical safety.

An industrial electrical maintenance technician may perform duties such as:

• Repairing electronic controllers, generators, transformers and motors on industrial robots and machine tools.
• Advising others as to whether or not equipment’s continued operation could be hazardous.
• Consulting with maintenance workers, industrial machinery mechanics, line repairers and installers, engineering technicians and engineers about complex electronic devices.
