This course is aimed at qualified gas engineers looking to expand their diagnostic skills and knowledge. It provides hands-on training in using a multimeter. This device allows you to measure voltage, current, resistance and accurately identify component faults.
The goal of this boiler fault finding course is to help you grow from fitting parts to gaining first-hand engineering experience. You will learn how to identify faults within the boiler’s start-up sequence and be able to recognise the cause and effect relationship that leads to system failures. The training is designed to strengthen your diagnostic ability and boost your confidence when attending breakdowns.
This course begins with a focus on multimeter training. This includes covering the practical application of resistance, capacitance, frequency (Hz), current (mA) and measuring both AC and DC voltage, as well as continuity testing.
We then examine the components and apply our learning to assess tolerances and distinguish between acceptable and faulty readings.
Some of the components checked include:
Entry requirements to qualify for our boiler fault finding course involve having a recognised gas qualification, such as a CCN1 certificate and being listed on the Gas Safe Register. This is an unaccredited course, ideal for Continuous Personal Development (CPD) and enhancing your ability to carry out accurate diagnostics. We offer a range of Gas Engineer Training Courses for those looking to expand their skill set and stay up to date with gas regulations and safety practices.
Gas engineers who regularly work with boilers can benefit from this course by learning how to diagnose and resolve faults more efficiently. This can result in more job opportunities and increased income by reducing the time spent on-site. With increased call-out demand during winter, the ability to quickly identify and repair faults can significantly boost your profitability. Providing a fast and reliable service helps build customer trust and strengthens word of mouth referrals—beneficial for those who are self-employed and part of a larger company.
The boiler fault finding course gives qualified engineers a competitive advantage, in-depth insight and valuable skills in diagnosing faults, understanding boiler components and carrying out accurate reports.
