Electrical Virtual Reality Training Modules

VR Modules for CTE & Workforce Electrical Training Programs

Electrical programs are balancing safety, lab capacity, equipment costs, and the need for students to build real confidence before working on live systems.

Through our partnership with Hard Hat VR, schools can integrate immersive, skills-based VR modules that reinforce classroom instruction and prepare students for hands-on lab work and apprenticeships.

These modules are designed specifically for skilled trades and industrial electrical training.

Available Electrical Modules

LOTO Electrical Room VR Training LOTO Electrical Room

This module allows students to practice proper energy isolation procedures in a realistic electrical room setting.

Students practice:

  • Identifying energy sources
  • Following correct lockout/tagout steps
  • Verifying zero-energy state
  • Recognizing common safety mistakes

This is an effective way to reinforce OSHA-aligned safety habits before students enter the live lab.

Magnum DS Breaker Magnum DS Breaker

Students gain experience working with large-frame low-voltage power circuit breakers used in commercial and industrial facilities.

Students learn:

  • Breaker components and inspection
  • Trip unit functions
  • Safe racking procedures
  • Operational checks and troubleshooting basics

Students gain familiarity with the equipment they will encounter in real-world facilities.

Medium Voltage Switch Medium Voltage Switch

Medium voltage systems require strong procedural discipline and safety awareness. This module provides guided interaction in a safe environment.

Students develop understanding of:

  • Switch operation sequences
  • PPE considerations
  • Arc flash awareness
  • Equipment identification

It helps reinforce high-risk procedures without live voltage exposure.

NRX Breaker – Developed with Eaton NRX Breaker – Developed with Eaton

Created in collaboration with Eaton, this module introduces students to modern air circuit breaker technology used in today’s power distribution systems.

Students explore:

  • Breaker configuration and settings
  • Protective device concepts
  • Operational procedures
  • Manufacturer-relevant equipment design

This supports alignment with current industry equipment and expectations.

Switchboard Operations Switchboard Operations

Students interact with a virtual switchboard to better understand power distribution systems.

Key learning areas:

  • System startup and shutdown procedures
  • Reading meters and indicators
  • Load awareness
  • Identifying abnormal conditions

This strengthens system-level thinking, not just component-level skills.

Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)

Backup power systems are critical in healthcare, data centers, and industrial facilities. This module introduces the fundamentals of UPS systems.

Students gain exposure to:

  • UPS components and layout
  • Battery systems
  • Alarm monitoring
  • Basic troubleshooting scenarios

It connects classroom electrical theory to real-world applications.

How Programs Are Using VR in Electrical Training

Schools are integrating VR to:

  • Reinforce safety before students touch live equipment
  • Provide structured, repeatable skills practice
  • Reduce lab bottlenecks
  • Increase engagement for visual and hands-on learners
  • Support apprenticeship and workforce preparation

VR does not replace hands-on training—it strengthens it. Students can make mistakes, repeat procedures, and build confidence before transitioning to live systems.
