ELECTRIC VEHICLE SUPPLY EQUIPMENT (EVSE) & CHARGING SYSTEMS LEVEL 1 TRAINING COURSE

WTA’s Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) and Charging Systems Training Course equips fleet technicians with the knowledge and practical skills required to diagnose and support the charging infrastructure that modern electric vehicles depend on.

Course curriculum includes understanding EVSE charge levels, connector types, communication methods, and the safe operating principles that govern both onboard and offboard charging systems for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty EVs.

​

Technicians learn how EVs interact with charging equipment, including pilot signal generation, proximity detection, load management, and the ‘handshake’ protocols that establish safe energy transfer. They gain a clear understanding of AC and DC charging architecture, charging modes, and how the various components of an EVSE system work together to protect both technicians and vehicle systems.

​

A major focus of this course is accurate diagnosis of EV charging concerns. Technicians learn how to inspect EVSE and vehicle-side circuits, evaluate connector integrity, and verify proper grounding and electrical supply conditions. Hands-on instruction includes the use of digital multimeters and oscilloscopes to analyze pilot signals, verify voltage and current flow, and identify faults that may cause reduced charging performance or a complete “no-charge” condition.

​

Through guided diagnostic exercises, technicians practice identifying common EVSE issues such as communication faults, wiring and grounding problems, failed relays and contactors, and connector or inlet defects. WTA’s EVSE & Charging Systems training emphasizes a structured approach that helps technicians determine whether the issue originates in the vehicle, the charging station, or the supporting electrical infrastructure.

​

By the end of the course, technicians are prepared to safely inspect, diagnose, and support EV charging equipment in fleet environments. This training strengthens a technician’s ability to keep electric vehicles charged, reliable, and ready for service, and it lays the groundwork for more advanced EV powertrain and high voltage system training within WTA’s curriculum.
