WHY THIS TRAINING MODULE?
Electrical engineering is often part of the study of physics. However, often theoretical study does not give you the ability to take advantage of the expertise in practical work. All the knowledge and skills needed for practical application are in this training module.
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?
In the introduction to electrical engineering, you will learn at the required level, the basic phenomena of electricity, how electrical current and magnetism are connected to each other in the generation and use of electricity. You will understand how electric current is generated by a traditional generator and how other ways of doing this differ.
In order for the use of the electrical and quantitative principles of electrical engineering to be useful mathematically, the basic functions and use of the multimeter are added to the learning. You will be presented with the structure and measurements of the instrument. With practical examples, you can perform these measurements and get tangible results for voltage, resistance, and current.
In the third part you will study basic electrotechnical variables: the basics for voltage, resistance, current and power. Additionally you will learn what these figures reflect in electrical engineering, how they should be understood and how they become concrete in practice.
The learning introduces you to the mathematical application of electrotechnics through practical examples. The purpose of sample results and calculations is to guide you to make similar mathematical applications with your own measurement results. This will help you achieve the true know-how of electrical engineering; “The practical application of electrical engineering”.

When working on the vehicle’s tyres and carrying out seasonal changing of tyres, you need to know the technical characteristics of tyres and wheel rims. You need to be in possession of proper inspection and mounting/dismounting skills, and you need to be able to advise the customer in safe operation and follow-up procedures. The vehicle’s tyres and wheel rims will give trouble-free service when the tyre and rim condition is attended to by a properly trained tyre-and-wheel professional.
