Frequently Asked Questions
Voltage, current, and resistance are explained as the building blocks for understanding how energized and de-energized systems behave differently.
The course walks through damaged outlets, misused extension cords, faulty light fixtures, and lithium-ion battery risks as hazards to watch for daily.
Yes, hazard identification and safe equipment use are taught within an OSHA compliance framework.
An energized system carries live current, and a de-energized one has had power removed; each requires its own handling approach, which the course separates clearly.
Because they've become common on job sites and carry fire and shock risks that differ from traditional wiring hazards, warranting their own coverage.
