Phillips Industries, as part of their annual sales conference held in Las Vegas during HDAW, invited Bruce Purkey, President of Purkey’s Electrical Consulting to give instruction to the company’s field representatives to better their diagnostic and problem solving techniques. Purkey presented hands-on electronic measuring instrument training with emphasis on using equipment such as multimeters, with the Phillip’s line of electrical products.

Bruce’s extensive field experience with diagnosing and troubleshooting fleets’ electrical problems makes him one of the nation’s most effective trainers in the business. With his simple approach to identifying root causes to common problems, he has increased the effectiveness of our sales team, and helped create a resource to assist in resolving some of the most expensive problems fleets face today.”
