Description

This course explores in depth the understanding through lecture and construction of various types of electromechanical relay logic control circuits as applied in both the commercial and industrial environment. The student will study ladder logic and component wiring design. The operations these circuits perform are also emphasized through lab exercises. Fundamental motor control is studied from its basic application through advanced instruction sets. Students will be involved in hard wiring motor control components using ladder logic into functional control circuits. Students will also learn a hands-on approach to maintaining and troubleshooting of various types of control circuits. Students will also focused on applying the National Electric Code (NEC) for sizing, grounding and over-current protection of single-phase and three-phase feeder circuits. Students will perform various calculations as required by the NEC. Transformer theory and commercial/industrial power distribution system
