Description:
This course will focus on electrical controls that are frequently overlooked in a formal training program. The content will begin with Ohm's Law and cover content all the way through technical troubleshooting aspects. The course is geared toward any level technician who wants a thorough review of electrical process concepts to reinforce their knowledge of basic electricity and develop skills required to install and maintain electrical control devices.
You will be able to:
- Use proper terminology and electrical symbols
- Describe the basics of power distribution
- Check various control devices for proper operation
- Make proper electrical connections
- Describe the purpose of control relays for various applications
- Explain the function of timing and counting relays.
- Apply schematics, wiring diagrams and electrical ladder logic to commission, troubleshoot and maintain electrical controls such as switches, pushbuttons, selector switches, solenoids, timing relays, counters, basic motion and speed control devices.
- Use electrical control devices to control the operation and failure modes for valve control applications.
