Rainbow Village Electrical Training 2026

Welcome to the class homepage for  2026 Rainbow Village Electrical Training! 
 Syllabus: In this class, we're going to learn about the Volkswagen-sized generator that powers our entire hub at Burning Man. You'll learn how to run it and maintain it safely, how to connect the heavy duty electrical cables that make power available throughout our 3.6 acre territory, and about all the different types of safety mechanisms that will hopefully keep us safe out there. You'll also learn how to do daily maintenance. 
 The course meets twice over Zoom and once in person. (Zoom Meeting ID - 89411607597 Passcode: 684171) 
 
 on Sunday April 12 at 12:00 noon PDT / 3:00pm EDT / 7:00pm UTC
