This should probably be in the classifieds but it is a bit of a rant as well so I am posting here.
If you hold a valid IP in Canada and have the slighest bit of controls knowledge and are willing to relocate PM me.
I don't need someone who can program a reactor, I don't need someone who can program anything. I need someone who knows basic electrical controls. Some qualifications;
- Know the difference between a solenoid valve and pressure switch. And also realize that if you hook an output up to a normally closed presure switch, a fuse might blow, and if you replace the fuse 10 times you might blow an output card.
- Can hook up something that involves more than two wires and not screw it up.
- Can connect a 600HP motor after being shown what nameplate wiring diagram to use and not screw it up.
- Know how to hook up a AB push button and actually figure out which contacts to use for NO and NC
- There are three ways to hook up the contacts on a single pole relay. NC, NO, and wrong. Pick any of the three other than wrong.
- Know what the difference between NO and NC is.
- spell PLC
- Understand that a water cooling circuit to a gearbox really has no bearing as to why the machine you just hooked up doesn't work.
- Union 12hr shift work so show up at least 10 days a month.
- If your drunk at the beginning of your shift, sober up a bit and then come in.
This was my week.
Seriously, I know the economy and manufacturing in most parts of the world is in the tank. I am in oil country and things are nuts and I can't find competent people. The area around the city I am in is sitting over millions of barrels of oil, and nothing else matters.
We are in a city of about 11000. Nice town with good schools and excellent actvities like hunting, camping, golf, fishing, etc.. nearby. We are about an hour north of the US borter. Our closest big center is about 300,000 people with ample shopping etc... and is only an hour away.
I will teach your but off on controls. Specfically plcs, motors, and drives.
If anyone is interested in finding a very nice place to raise their family, plus the added bonus of being a good place to hone their electrial controls knowledge please PM me, I'm getting desperate.
