11 courses with the subject ELOC, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
ELOC 153Fundamentals of Electricity 4:2:4
Presents basic electrical terms, units and Ohm’s Law, analysis of series, parallel and series/ parallel circuits, and the operation and use of batteries. The use of capacitance in DC currents and the operation of magnetic circuits are also covered. In addition, the course introduces alternating current waveforms, average and effective values, and capacitors and inductors in AC circuits. Reactance and impedance are defined. The operation of series and parallel AC circuits, resonance circuits (series and parallel), and polyphase systems are covered. A course fee is required. 278
Provides an introduction to residential wiring practices, including safety procedures and to basic tools. This course specifically addresses cutting, stripping, and splicing Romex wire installation of duplex and basic receptacles, lighting circuits, single pole, 3-way and 4-way switches. Students wire combination lighting/receptacle circuits, baseboard heaters, dryers, range circuits and other circuits according to the National Electrical Code (NEC). In addition, installing fused and fuse less panels are also covered. A course fee is required. Co-requisite: ELOC 153 or permission of the Instructor or Discipline Lead.
Introduces commercial wiring safety requirements, basic tools and related equipment. Installation of branch circuits, feeders, switches, receptacles and appliances are covered. In addition, students learn lighting terminology, fixture locations, installation, overcurrent protection, and emergency systems operations. A course fee is required. Co-requisite: ELOC 157; Or permission of the Instructor or Discipline Lead.
Instructs students to survey, design, and install photovoltaic solar and battery backup systems for residential and commercial use. Buildings, including their layout designs, are analyzed for proper application of solar and battery technologies. This course also covers solar radiation, installation planning, system configurations, DC and AC circuit integration, battery principles, charge controllers, inverters, power conditioners, sizing calculations and methodologies, mounting considerations, overcurrent protection, grounding and bonding, permitting, inspection, utility interconnection policies, maintenance and troubleshooting, incentives, and cost analysis. Prerequisite: ELOC 153 with a grade of C or higher.
Encompasses the installation, troubleshooting, and repair of single and multi-line systems for telephones, fax machines, alarms, and fiber-optic cabling. Students are introduced to fiber optics as a modern communications system. Laboratory activities include fusion splicing of these multi-line systems, as well as fiber-optic terminations and connections. A course fee is required. Prerequisite: ELOC 153 with a grade of C or higher.
Emphasizes the design, calculation, construction use, and the storage of energy. The course presents the increased utilization of monitoring equipment for software analysis of power efficiencies and environmental impact studies. Prerequisite: ELOC 163 with a grade of C or higher, or permission of the Instructor or Department Chair.
Covers the procedures for the safe installation of commercial and residential services. A course fee is required. Prerequisite: ELOC 163 with a grade of C or higher.
Emphasizes the requirements of the National Electrical Code for service, feeder, and branch circuits, conductor sizing, and grounding. An analysis of appropriate wiring methods for residential and commercial buildings is also provided. 279
Develops skills and procedures for troubleshooting electrical circuits. Students are taught to systematically identify problems, isolate probable causes, repair malfunctions, and establish preventative maintenance systems. Laboratory work involves addressing issues and problems found in typical industrial settings. Prerequisite: ELOC 153 with a grade of C or higher.
ELOC 177NFPA 70E - Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace 1:1:0
Addresses electrical safety requirements for employee workplaces. This course provides necessary guidelines and strategies for avoiding or reducing the occurrence of injuries within the workplace. This course specifically addresses activities involving interaction with electrical systems from electrocution and arc blasts to electrical explosions and should be garnered as essential training for the practical safeguarding of employees.
Allows students the opportunity to engage in a part-time work experience for a total of 210 hours (15-hours per week) at an approved employer within the electrical profession. Under the supervision of a faculty member, students gain on-the-job work experience performing the duties and tasks consistent with the topics covered in the electrical technology curriculum. This course is only available to students, who have earned 24 or more credits in ELOC courses and are enrolled in the Electrical Technology AAS or certificate programs. Prerequisite: IA 201 and ELOC 163 with grades of C or higher, or permission of the Instructor.
