By the end of this workshop, you will be able to: - Wire and test a three-way lighting circuit with confidence - Install recessed lighting fixtures correctly - Wire a GFCI receptacle and understand downstream protection - Identify and correct common wiring mistakes before power is restored - Use a multimeter to verify safe conditions and diagnose issues - Understand how breakers, GFCIs, and lighting respond to faults - Apply key code concepts including grounding, box fill, conductor sizing, and breaker selection Hands-On Learning: Each participant works at a dedicated station using real materials and professional methods. You will learn to: - Pull and prepare cable - Terminate switches, outlets, and fixtures - Identify traveler wires and neutral paths - Test circuits before energizing - Troubleshoot wiring issues Safety First: Safety is non-negotiable. You will learn: - Lockout and tagout procedures - Proper PPE and safe work habits - How to verify circuits are de-energized - How professionals test before and after energizing All live power demonstrations are handled by the instructor. Why Take This Class: Electrical issues are not always obvious. This workshop teaches you how to test, verify, and think through electrical work safely, so you can handle basic tasks with confidence and know when to call a professional.
