Monday starts with a lesson on refrigeration technology. Your teacher explains how a cooling system works: it cools by evaporating liquid. You take notes and ask questions. After that, you head to the workshop. Together with two classmates, you look at a fridge that isn't cooling properly. You figure out what's wrong.
On Tuesday you have electrical engineering. You learn how the controls of an air conditioning unit work. The controls are the system that turns the air conditioning on and off. You draw a simple diagram on paper. Wednesday is a full practical day, meaning you practise in the workshop. You work with measuring equipment: a device that measures temperature and pressure. You follow the safety rules carefully, because mistakes can be dangerous.
