Connect – Electrical Fundamentals
The Connect – Electrical Fundamentals trainer is ideal for exploring different types of electrical circuits, their working principles, and the interaction between components, offering an interactive way to learn the fundamentals of electrical systems and concepts.
With this trainer and Electude’s integrated e-learning modules, students can build, test and measure various types of circuits and components and apply principles such as Ohm’s law. They can also learn to use the multimeter and measure voltage, resistance, and current. Due to the protection of the equipment, students can make faults without the risk of damaging the trainer.
