Default Free Online Electrical course

Hi to all,

We have today launched the next online educational course for members:

http://www.nachi.org/electricalcoursereleased2006.htm

I hope you all find it useful, please don't hesitate to email me with any suggestions.

I have to thank member and NEC trainer Paul Abernathy for acting as technical consultant on the project, and also Michael Rowan of Inspection Depot and Mike Holt od Mike Holt Enterprises for the use of their images.

Thanks also go to members who post pictures to this site, and our image library, you snap some great pics guys.

Regards

Gerry

Just for your reference the Ministry Of The Environment for Ontario has decreed that a metal well casing is not allowed to be used as a ground for electrical panels.
I guess they are worried about the worms. lol
