Excelente, muy buen instructor, la enseanza clara y precisa.
By Keith Shaughnessy on 9/18/2020
I found the course very interesting and relevant, only suggestion would be to include some real-life photos of generators, earth bars etc. sort of like a side-by-side comparison as your going through the diagrams have the system next to it so we can see the components in real life aswell as their diagram counterparts. but overall worth the buy.

Easy

This course provides a good understanding of the construction site's electrical system. It is to the points.
By Trey Tudor on 7/11/2020
Very basic overview of site electrical. Informative, but not necessarily substantive.
By William Butler on 7/3/2020
Yes, already made me question my previous understanding and apply new knowledge to current task
