Course Description

The Electrical Maintenance & Troubleshooting for Facility Management Technicians program is a comprehensive technical training course designed specifically for electrical technicians and maintenance personnel working in facility management environments.

The course focuses on the practical operation, inspection, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, testing, and repair of electrical systems commonly used in commercial buildings, residential towers, hospitals, malls, hotels, airports, and industrial facilities. Participants will develop practical field skills required for maintaining low-voltage electrical systems, lighting systems, distribution boards, motors, generators, UPS systems, emergency lighting, electrical panels, power distribution equipment, and building electrical utilities.

The program emphasizes workplace electrical safety, maintenance best practices, fault diagnosis, testing techniques, electrical tools usage, preventive maintenance planning, and operational troubleshooting to improve equipment reliability, reduce downtime, and support safe and efficient facility operations.

The training is highly practical and operational, utilizing demonstrations, hands-on workshops, fault simulation exercises, operational scenarios, and real-life maintenance case studies.
