Course Overview

The Electrical Test Equipment (EMS-115) course by Rockwell Automation is designed for electrical maintenance technicians who need to develop foundational skills in electrical testing and measurement. This two-day instructor-led program covers essential topics such as recognizing test equipment types, interpreting ammeter readings, using oscilloscopes, measuring insulation resistance with megohmmeters, and performing high potential tests. Participants also learn safety precautions associated with electrical testing and gain practical knowledge in predictive maintenance techniques like thermography and infrared testing. With industrial facilities increasingly adopting preventive maintenance strategies—over 70% of U.S. manufacturers now use condition-based monitoring—the demand for skilled technicians proficient in proper test equipment usage continues to grow.

Students engage directly with industry-standard tools including analog and digital multimeters, clamp-on ammeters, voltage detectors, oscilloscopes, meggers, and infrared cameras during hands-on lab exercises. The course uses Rockwell Automation’s official Lab Book to guide learners through real-world scenarios such as evaluating waveforms, calculating signal characteristics like frequency and phase difference, and analyzing thermal images to detect overheating components. These labs are conducted in a physical classroom environment under instructor supervision, allowing immediate feedback and skill reinforcement. A key integrated practice involves safely conducting insulation resistance tests on simulated motor circuits, mimicking actual field conditions found in manufacturing plants and process industries.

While the Electrical Test Equipment (EMS-115) course does not map to a formal certification exam, it supports career advancement toward roles such as Maintenance Technician, Electrical Troubleshooter, or Plant Electrician—all positions where precision testing skills are critical. Graduates report an average salary increase of 12–18% after applying these competencies in the field. Koenig Solutions delivers this official Rockwell Automation curriculum using Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling and includes access to authorized courseware and 1-on-1 training options for personalized learning. Completing EMS-115 builds a strong technical foundation that empowers professionals to progress into advanced automation maintenance and reliability engineering roles.
