Electrical service companies know how technicians turn a messy symptom into a verified repair. Scale AI names electrical field services in its operational-data partnership. micro1 separately names electrical installations in its trade capture program. FineART shows a public use of step-level labels in physical AI. Confirm that a specific buyer accepts your task, permissions and recording conditions before collecting. Scale data partnership · FineART dataset and model · micro1 trade recording

Use an approved training board with a qualified instructor and follow your organization's safety procedures. Choose a benign task such as identifying mock breaker labels or documenting component positions on a de-energized trainer. A fixed camera can show the full board, while a first-person camera can show what the trainee looks at. Write the start state, hand action, visible component, result and unsafe or ambiguous examples as separate labels. Keep energized work, customer panels, proprietary drawings, access codes and site identifiers out of the collection. Avoid wearing any device that interferes with work, protective equipment or situational awareness.

A document-only first sample could be a reconstructed troubleshooting ticket that shows symptom, test type, diagnostic decision and outcome. A buyer can then say whether their goal is ticket triage, field-service reasoning, component identification, or video understanding. OSHA electrical standards

First step. Send a description of the trainer, proposed task and permissions. Hold recordings until the scope, safety and buyer requirements are agreed. Describe collection capability.

Original Fiund exercise

Read a mock label using the issued front-view reference

Paper-only diagrams represent a benign component-position task. No energized equipment, wiring instruction or real panel is involved.

Fictional records supplied to the evaluator
RecordSourceWhat it records
DIAGRAM-E1Original front-view drawingIssued revision R1 labels position 3 as Alder.
DIAGRAM-E2Confirmed issued revisionR2 applies to practice board B and labels front-view position 3 as Birch.
VIEW-E3Practice image recordBoard B is photographed from the rear. The matching orientation note states that the apparent left-right order is reversed.
REQUEST-E4Unissued change requestA proposed R3 would rename position 3 Cedar. No issue event is supplied.

Question for the model

Which label is documented for board B's front-view position 3, and how should the rear view and proposed change be handled?

Show the reference answer and checks

R2 documents Birch for B's front-view position 3. The rear-view image must be interpreted using its supplied orientation note, rather than counting apparent positions as a front view. E4 is an unissued request and does not replace R2. The answer concerns diagram-to-view association only and establishes no circuit function, identification of real equipment or permission to perform work.

  • Reading a rear view with an unmodified front-view orientation.
  • Applying the latest proposed label without a corresponding issued revision.

Fields to preserve

Practice board and issued revision
Identify the drawing that applies to B.
Reference direction
Preserve front-versus-rear orientation.
Position and label
Keep the label attached to its documented coordinate.
Change status
Separate an issued instruction from an unissued request.

Test another case

Issue R3 for another practice board only. The assistant must preserve R2 for B despite the newer revision number.

Use original paper diagrams or an approved inert trainer with a qualified reviewer. Exclude live work, customer panels, protected drawings, access codes and real site identifiers.
