Description:

Construction is the systematic process of putting something together. Constructing electrical systems requires a variety of mechanical skills including, but not limited to, measuring, cutting, drilling, bending, fabricating, mounting, fastening, supporting, and terminating. These basic mechanical skills become the foundation for technical and specialized skills. As such, construction requires the efficient and safe use of numerous hand and power tools, as well as the techniques to use trade-specific tools. In addition, electrical work is a licensed and regulated occupation. It is important that students are made aware of the laws and rules governing licensing and registration so as not to find themselves facing the consequences of working unlawfully.
