Did you know if you let a diesel engine run entirely out of fuel it will be necessary to “bleed” the fuel injector lines? We will be looking at how and why a generator actually produces electricity, as well as how a diesel internal combustion engine works. We will carefully examine how the generator head, the internal combustion engine, and ancillary components, work together to provide emergency power when it’s needed. We will also examine safe and effective maintenance practices regarding the generator and its’ peripheral components. This interactive online course covers the steps to test and maintain a battery, the standard components which make up a generator system, the items to inspect before manually starting a generator and will explain how to inspect the coolant system.

In this country, as well as in most other developed countries, we have gotten used to the conveniences and comforts that electricity provides. Much, if not most, of our modern technology is heavily, or totally dependent on electricity as its energy source. This interactive online course covers the basics of Standby Electrical Power Systems. These are power systems which remain in a standby mode (meaning “ready to go”) just-in-case the utility-supplied electricity to a campus, a building, or an individual room fails, for whatever reason.

Did you know when standby/emergency generators fail to start during an actual emergency the very real possibility exists that lives could be lost, or businesses could lose? To achieve maximum system dependability, a scheduled series of inspections and tests must be performed. Due to the potentially life-affecting nature of being without power altogether, or the possibly of a system actually causing life-threatening conditions, several government agencies have established minimum requirements for inspecting and testing emergency standby generators. This interactive online course addresses ways to maximize reliability in standby power systems.
