Introduction
The Electrical Service Technician-A (EST-A) course is delivered over a four week period as part of our full-time Certificate in Applied Electronics Technology programme. This is not a stand-alone short course, or trade refresher
course.
It is an intregral part of the Certificate programme and students must successfully complete the pre-requisite subjects in electrical theory and practice before we will permit you to undertake the
EST-A subjects in the final part of the Electrical Practice course.

EST-A Qualification
Electrical Service Technician-A registration is required for testing, servicing and repairing electrical appliances and equipment designed for connection to a single phase electricity supply by a
flexible cord and plug and rated at a voltage not exceeding 230 volts.
Electec College is contracted by the Electrical Workers Registration Board (EWRB) to deliver the theoretical training and assess the
practical skills, but the final theory examination at the end of the course is prepared and marked by the EWRB.

Students who pass the EWRB examination automatically qualify for accreditation of the National Qualification Framework unit standards nos 10933, 10934, 10935 and 10936 awarded by the New
