ETEC 1552AC Power3
This course covers investigation of alternating current and its behavior in resistive, inductive and reactive series, parallel, and series/parallel circuits; use of test instrumentation; and electromagnetic induction. Transfer Curriculum Goal(s): none
This course introduces the learner to motor control components and provides them with a basic knowledge of control circuitry. The learner will build on his/her experiences for basic electricity by designing, building, and troubleshooting more complex circuits. Devices such as contactors, motor-starters, relays, timers, mechanical, and proximity switches are used. Electronic motor controls and programmable devices such as variable frequency drives are introduced. Transfer Curriculum Goal(s): none
This course will introduce students to design and program graphical user interfaces to control industrial automated systems. Students will create operator interface stations for local cell operators to provide input, 70
1551 Programmable Logic Controllers 1 Corequisite: none This course allows students to develop professional competency in their chosen focus area by working on a semester long project. Students will be required to safely construct, test, and troubleshoot a working automated system. Students are expected to work independently and to ask for help when needed. The project concludes with a presentation of the work performed and the learning accomplished during the project. Transfer Curriculum Goal(s): none
