Electric Pro Academy - Real skills to make real money.

Synopsis:
We received a word-of-mouth request that a friend of a friend was facing tough times financially and needed some pretty serious home electrical remediation. We didn’t realize HOW serious that remediation was until we showed up to help several days later. What we assumed was going to be a light whole-home inspect-&-correct quickly turned into an electrical panel resuscitation! In the face of a rat’s nest of electrical madness, here’s how Joel prioritized the problems and tackled solutions.

Laced within the technical instruction are recommendations and points of professionalism employed daily by Jefferson Electric masters, journeymen, & apprentices.
