Electrical Systems 1 Certification (C‑201)
Exam Coverage
The exam coverage includes the foundational electrical and
automation concepts assessed in the Electrical Systems 1 Certification
(C‑201) offered by the Smart Automation Certification Alliance (SACA).
It focuses on basic electrical theory including voltage, current,
resistance, power, and Ohm's Law, as well as the identification and
operation of electrical components used in industrial systems. The
exam also evaluates understanding of electrical schematics and wiring
diagrams, circuits, sensors, relays, switches, and motors commonly
used in automation environments. Emphasis is placed on electrical
safety procedures, proper use of testing equipment such as
multimeters, troubleshooting basic electrical systems, and applying
,electrical knowledge in automated manufacturing and industrial
settings. ⚡🔧
Ten rules of electrical safety
A set of guidelines to ensure safe practices when working with
electricity.
Ground
The connection of an electrical circuit to the Earth.
, Lockout / tag out
A safety procedure used to disable machinery or equipment to
prevent hazardous energy release.
Types of electrical current
Direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC).
Circuit tester
A device used to test the presence of voltage in an electrical circuit.
