Teen Workshop: Electrical Basics
Advertisement
Date: Monday, July 13
Start Time: 10:00 AM
Duration: 3 hours
Age: 14 to 17
Location: TradeWorx Academy - Fair Oaks Mall - Upper Level
📍 See our Locate Us page on our website for more information on how to locate us in the mall.
What Is Included:
All tools, materials, personal protective equipment, and a take-home multimeter.
Dress Code: Closed-toe shoes, well-fitted clothing your teen does not mind getting dirty, no loose jewelry, longer hair pulled back.
What this workshop covers:
• How electricity works in a real home.
• Electrical safety practices and professional code basics.
• Proper wire connections and techniques.
• Electrical panel organization and circuit distribution.
• How power flows from source to outlets, switches, and fixtures.
Hands-on practice:
Students handle real wire, make proper connections, and trace how power moves through a complete home electrical system — guided by a licensed electrician in a safe, small-group setting.
Why This Trade Matters:
Electricity powers every home, building, and piece of modern infrastructure. Skilled electricians install, maintain, and troubleshoot the systems everything depends on - work that requires licensing, technical precision, and problem-solving that cannot be automated.
Where This Can Take Them:
Electricians are among the most in-demand tradespeople in the country, and demand is growing with the rise of EV charging, solar energy, and smart home technology. This is a licensed trade with real long-term stability - those who master it can work for a contractor, become a master electrician, or build their own brand from the ground up.
These are skills your teen will actually use:
Knowing how electrical systems work means making smart, safe decisions at every stage of life - from handling a tripped breaker to having an informed conversation with a contractor or making sound choices about a future home. It keeps people safe and saves real money, whether they enter the trades or not.
