Hi All:
Thanks for this Forum. I am a Licensed Electrician in central New Jersey. I am working as a plant electrician for a water company and would like to get some hands on experience with PLC's. I have asked the company for training in this field but there responce is that " it's not my job" ?? Go Figure??? Anyway, I am learning on my own by the use of books such as the one from this site as well as others but I am not able to put what I have learned into real life action.
Companies do not want to take a chance on training someone on there equipment and I don't blame them. I would never let anyone work on something without proper guidance.
My question to this Forum is:
How do I get hands on experience with PLC's.
I am willing to work for a company part time after my normal hours. I don't know if this is appealing but I figure it's worth a shot. I understand that I will have to give a little in order to get a lot!!
Any help will be most apreciated.
Thank you
Joe
