Abstract
The purpose of this course is to develop the student’s knowledge and skills in the area of electrical safety, DC/AC machines and basic control circuits. The electrical safety module will focus on lockout/tagout, arc-flash standards, PPE, electrical panels and overcurrent protection. The DC/AC machines will focus on the wiring and troubleshooting of DC shunt motors, single phase motors (split-phase, capacitor-start, and permanent capacitor), dual voltage transformers, and three phase motors. The basic control circuits will consist of start/stop/jog, dual start/stop, sequence circuits, and reversing circuits. There will also be a module focused on the installation of a PLC system (based on the Micrologix 1200 PLC). Students will learn how to utilize a test equipment and electrical prints to troubleshoot electrical systems. After completing this course the student will:
1. Explain the NFPA Basic Safe Electrical Work Practices.
2. Install and troubleshoot DC/AC industrial motors
3. Install and troubleshoot electrical control circuits.
4. Install and troubleshoot forward/reversing motor control circuits
5. Explain industrial power and control voltages
6. Wire a dual voltage transformer for step-up and step-down configuration
7. Install and troubleshoot solid state discrete sensors (proximity & photo-electric)
8. Install and troubleshoot a PLC hardware I/O installation
9. Install and troubleshoot fuses and circuit breakers in an industrial environment
