Together with your team, you install the network behind the sockets - and therefore ensure trouble-free operation. No matter whether it's for installations and connections for electricity, telephony, Internet and television. Or for intelligent, energy-efficient building automation. You install electrical supply networks with all of the associated devices and systems - whether in new buildings or conversions in the commercial or industrial sector. You also take on installations of more complex networks and systems and learn to read and implement technical and schematic plans. You test and check the functionality, fix faults where necessary and, of course, also take care of maintenance.
