The Electrical Systems for HVAC/R Program is an award to recognize proficiency in electrical systems for HVAC/R, concepts and practices. The program prepares students to become environmental control technology/HVAC/R technicians to maintain and repair heating, cooling, and refrigeration equipment in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. Technicians can specialize in either installation or maintenance and repair.
Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:
- Identify the electrical components used in air conditioning and refrigeration systems, and state the function of each.
- State how each of the electrical components in a wiring diagram contributes to the sequence of operation.
- Research and apply various electrical codes published in the National Electric Code book (NEC) and mandated by local authorities.
