I ve been going to school for HVAC for about a month now. And I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on reading schematics or wiring the machinery up. ( besides make sure the power is off) Each day I get it a little more but I was just wondering if any experts had some tips. Also how is the pay when you get out of school? Please don't tell me to go to salarey I just wanted to know for someone with 1st hand experience. I live in Ma. Thanks in advance
When working with schematics just remember that all electrical circuits have to have 5 components 1) a source ( ac or dc) 2) a load (maybe a lightbulb) 3) protection ( fuse or circuit breaker) 4) conductors (wires) 5) a switch. Once you know what all of your components are you shouldn't have any trouble following the lines on the schematic. As far as pay is concerned, it all depends on salaries in your state. I don't know what they are in MA. Try calling some electrical contractor in your area and do a salary survey with the. Hope this helps.
make friends with some one in the drafting department. part of drafting is drawing electrical drawings. a good hvac man with some experience can write his own ticket in any town. be patient......you wont get to the top in a week....it takes time. Possum, hvac guy
I had an comparable information loss. I emailed the help and that they urged me it replace into lost, and to layout the information :S in spite of if you obtain the schematic, each and each little element might desire to be so micro sized, you're able to opt to no longer do something as suitable perhaps a loopy re-soldering of a broken connection. danger is there are no longer any broken connections, or something a shopper might desire to opt to repair. Strongbad defines technologies as: something it extremely is very cool, and if it breaks you need to purchase a sparkling one probably the information basically corrupted, so there does no longer be of project of even swapping the flash memory to a diversechronic.
try taking a certification course at your local college.
