EWIS TG 3,4 & 5 Continuation Course
This EWIS course complies with EASA AMC 20-21, AMC 20-22, and FAR 25, Subpart H—Electrical Wiring Interconnection Systems (EWIS).
About
This refresher/continuation course is designed for two target groups:
Target Group 3: Qualified staff performing electrical/avionic engineering on in-service aeroplane.
Target Group 4: Qualified staff performing general maintenance/inspections not involving wire maintenance (LRU change is not considered wire maintenance)
Target Group 5: Qualified staff performing other engineering or planning work on in-service aeroplane
As engineers ourselves, we aimed to make the mandatory EWIS training more engaging and relevant than traditional courses. By incorporating current incidents and accidents relevant to aircraft engineering, we seek to create a more enjoyable and informative learning experience. Our course includes up-to-date information on wiring, electrical manuals, and practical knowledge that engineers can apply directly in their work.
