Questions
Can I do full house wiring after this course?
No. This course is for small, safe repairs at home. New wiring, meter and main-line work must be done by a licensed electrician.
Is the practical safe?
Yes. Practice is done on training boards under the trainer, with power switched off and checked before touching any wire.
How long is the course?
About 12 hours, mostly hands-on practice.
What should I do after an electric shock at home?
Switch off the supply, get medical help (108), and get the wiring checked by an electrician before using it again.
