FACTORY CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN SCHOOL

In 2015, Power-Tronics, Inc. began offering a new program for our customers that is designed to improve understanding of our products, increase awareness of available applications, and provide troubleshooting and training for voltage regulating systems on a wide variety of electrical generators.

Few generator servicemen today are able to quickly and efficiently troubleshoot or repair a generator on the spot or under pressure from the customer or time constraints. We feel that if technicians are well versed in repair and troubleshooting techniques as well as possessing a large amount of knowledge of our products they will be able to better communicate with us at a technical level and will also be able to communicate more clearly with the customer. All of this means more profit for your company, a better reputation for your service staff, and a simpler supply solution with a minimum of stocked items in your inventory.

DAY 1 (Friday): 8:00am - 5:00pm (lunch provided)
