28 - Basic Electricity - Introduction to Fire Alarms

In this video I get into the basics of electricity, specifically as they relate to our profession. I try to focus on the topics that are most important to know for a fire alarm technician. This video starts with a discussion of voltage, and I plan to move on to current, resistance, and the relationship between the three in upcoming videos.

I wish you would never stop making videos. I love learning about fire alarm and you are the top guy to go to on RUclips.

Glad to see you pick up where you left off. I teach apprentices in the classroom for my State's apprenticeship program, and your videos are a large part of my lesson plan. Keep up the good work.

Thank you very much Joe for all the videos you made to teach others and share your knowledge. I watched all your videos start to finish. I am hoping you can please continue on the topic of fire alarm video number 27 where you were explaining the NACs and how they are being controlled by FRMs and continue on from there. I really appreciate your effort to make all these very informative video. God bless you

[@christianbeltran1127]

Whats up man do you have nicet cert? If you do it would be great for a study guide video !

[@JoeKlochan]

I have NICET 3, but I don't have any desire to do study guide videos. Those are open book tests that basically test your ability to find answers in their books, which would be hard to prepare for without using the book.
