Electrical Motor Controls Course

Course Descrption

COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course provides the structure and content for acquiring the knowledge and skills required in an advanced manufacturing environment.
It will also serve as a practical resource for maintenance technicians responsible for production and HVAC equipment.


METHOD OF INSTRUCTION

The motor control class will be broken down into 2 semesters. The first semester will cover the first half of the textbook and the second semester will cover the second half of the textbook.

Classroom study will be via Zoom on Wednesday nights for 2 hours, then a 2-hour lab on Zoom every Saturday. 4 hours total each week.


COURSE OBJECTIVES

The course begins with basic electrical and motor theory, builds on circuit fundamentals, and reinforces comprehension through examples of industrial applications.

Special emphasis is placed on the development of trouble shooting skills.
