Why should everyday New Zealanders care whether electricians know how to teach? ⚡️

Because being great at your trade doesn't automatically make you great at passing that knowledge on.

If we don't teach our experienced tradespeople how to teach, we make it harder to develop the next generation of skilled electricians.

Fewer well-trained electricians means a tighter supply of skilled tradespeople and when supply can't keep up with demand, the cost of electrical services will continue to rise.

Training apprentices isn't just an industry issue. It affects all of us.

Caravan Power Upgrade – Part 4 ⚡

This one is all about the design work behind the installation.

We talk about why manuals and manufacturer information are so important for electricians, and how learning to properly design electrical systems is a big part of an electrical apprenticeship.

Good installations start with good design.

Caravan Power Upgrade – Part 3 ⚡
Now we’re looking at how the new batteries will be charged.
The upgraded setup gives them three ways to charge — mains power, solar, and from the tow vehicle while travelling — with the new chargers also allowing for faster, more efficient charging.
More flexibility, faster charging and better use of the power available.

Caravan Power Upgrade – Part 2 ⚡
This time we’re looking at the batteries. We’re upgrading the existing setup to a larger lithium battery, giving them more usable power and better storage capacity.
We’re also relocating the battery from under the bed to ensure the new installation meets the requirements for lithium batteries in caravans.
Next up, we’ll keep working through the new power setup and how it all comes together.

Caravan Power Upgrade – Part 1 ⚡
In this video, we take a look at the caravan’s current battery, solar and controller setup, and talk through what we’ll be changing to achieve more power generation, more storage capacity, and make better use of the limited space available.
Next up, we’ll look at the new lithium battery and where we’re going to fit it.

A cool little project we’ve got underway - upgrading a caravan with a new lithium battery and multiple ways to keep it charged: solar, the tow vehicle, and mains power.
We thought people might be interested in what goes into a setup like this, so we’ll share a few videos as we work through the project.

We’ll ask about difficult situations you’ve faced, what actions you took and how you moved forward.

We’re not looking for a perfect answer. We want to understand how you manage conflict, de-escalate situations, take accountability and work towards a resolution.

Think about real examples that show your ability to focus on what you can control, learn from challenges and move forward professionally.
