Students may begin working with circuit boards or individual components such as compressors. This gives them easy access to all the components. They may then move on to the actual equipment. Click on a photo to enlarge it.

Some boards have labels to identify their components and the classes and the specific lab lab exercises that use them.	Students in Basic Electricity for HVAC use boards such as this to learn about resistance and other basic electricity topics
There are enough boards for students to work in small teams on the exercises.	Other introductory classes use the individual compressors in lab exercises. The yellow-bordered tags indicate the class and exercises.
