5.0 - 3.0 - 6.0

Prerequisite

None

Course Description

This course consists of lectures, discussions, demonstrations, and coaching in the general area of electrical theory and practice used in process control systems. It studies electron theory as it relates to ac and dc circuits. Students study various circuits, resistance, capacitance, inductance, symbols, and wiring diagrams. Lab assignments and virtual training provide students an understanding of electrical theory, measuring, and control devices. The course emphasizes safety, as students are working with actual controls and voltages.
