Hello and thanks for visiting. My name is Tom Sullivan. I am a Technical Trainer at United Illuminating's Training Yard in Trumbull, CT and have been working in electric operations for almost 40 years as an Operator or a Trainer. I've also been an Adjunct, On-Line Instructor for Bismarck State College's ELPW and ETST Programs since 2014.

The science of electricity and electric system operations have become passions for me over the years and that's really what's driving this website. It’s intended audience is the thousands of Electric Operating personnel who work for their local utility, cooperative or ISO/RTO.  Through it I hope to “Shine Some Light” by offering interesting courses to add to the “Working Knowledge” these folks are constantly striving to accumulate.
