Who it's for

Who are the Field Maps for?

Electricians moving into industrial

You can wire anything. Now you want to read the logic behind it and take the plant and controls work that pays more per hour.

Maintenance techs

You need the symbol, the wiring and the next check in front of you while the line is down and the supervisor is watching.

Electromechanical techs and millwrights

You already know the machine. The maps fill in the PLC, the sensors and the drive so you stop waiting on the controls guy.

Apprentices and trade school students

Every topic on one page, so you review faster than flipping through a 600-page textbook the night before the test.

Guys starting from zero

Plain words, one idea per map and a ladder or wiring drawing on every topic. No engineering degree needed.

Guys who take side jobs

Pump panels, conveyors, drives and small-shop machines. The maps keep the reference in your pocket when you quote and fix them on your own time.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need experience in automation?

No. The maps start at what a PLC is and build up one idea per page. If you already work in the trade, you can jump straight to the topic you need.

Is it in English and for the US?

Yes. Everything is in English and follows US practice: Allen-Bradley first, NEMA starters, 120 VAC and 24 VDC control, ANSI/JIC symbols, with IEC where it helps.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. Open the library on your phone, tablet or laptop, read online or download the PDFs.

Is it a video course?

No. It's a visual reference library: maps, cheat sheets, diagrams and quick tables you can read in a minute and look up on the job.

Is it good for apprentices and students?

Yes. Each topic fits on single pages, so it's built for review and test prep.

Does it work for techs who already work in a plant?

Yes. Most maps are made as a quick reference for the day to day: the symbol, the wiring, the next check.

Does it replace training, a license or safety rules?

No. The maps are a study and reference tool. Work on live equipment only if you are qualified, follow NFPA 70E, lockout/tagout and your plant's procedures, and check the manufacturer's manual.

How do I get my access?

Right after payment you get access to the online library by email and on the confirmation screen.

⚠️ Safety: these maps are for learning and reference. They don't replace a license, NFPA 70E, lockout/tagout, local codes or the equipment manual. If you're not qualified for live work, don't do it.
