Electrical Lab

Today in Irrigation class we worked on creating an electrical troubleshooting guide for various electrical issues. We used Rainbird and Toro satellites for our various electrical problems that we had to diagnose. We had problems such as: wire continuity, bad solenoid, voltage issue, etc.
