Applied Electrical Technology

The Applied Electrical Technology Program students will be involved in “live” work on off-campus construction and restoration sites. Students will master the fundamentals of residential wiring and, as a second year student, learn electrical codes and their interpretations, the proper installation of metallic and PVC conduit.
