7 courses with the subject ELPP, 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.
Provides an introduction to basic electrical theory: how voltage is produced; the use of Ohm’s Law to relate current, voltage, and resistance; series and parallel circuits; electromagnetism; and DC and AC systems. Introduces basic electric power components: batteries, generators, motors, transformers, solenoids, relays, fuses, and circuit breakers.
Familiarizes students with the principles of motor control and controllers and industrial wiring, including the principles of electrical safety with the use of the National Electrical Code. Provides an introduction to residential and commercial wiring along with practice in the safe construction of simple wiring circuits.
Offers an introduction to electrical power generators, including the overall power generation system, exciters, voltage regulators, and generator auxiliary systems. Also introduces how to startup, run, and shut down AC generators. Covers basic AC circuits with resistive, inductive, and capacitive loads. Provides instruction in the calculation and measurement of real power, apparent power, and reactive power. Introduces single phase transformations and motors.
Introduces three phase power and how it is generated. Studies Wye and Delta transformer connections with current, voltage, and power calculations for resistive, capacitive, and inductive loads. Also introduces high voltage power transmission, station service systems, and switchyard and substation components. Offers lab study of motors and generators.
Utilizing appropriate programmable logic controllers (PLCs) training equipment, students are introduced to Distributed Control Systems (DCS) and their various parts and processes. Students develop and troubleshoot process control operating screens that interact with PLCs.
Examines various types of motor control circuits including full and reduced voltage starters, man-ual and automatic controls, and sensing and control devices. Lab exercises make extensive use of fault insertion and troubleshooting techniques and include a design project. Examines solid state devices in depth.
Introduces students to PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) using state-of-the-art training equipment. Through lab intensive instruction, students learn to program a PLC system. Students write, program, and troubleshoot control circuits containing timers, counters, comparison circuits, bit shift operations, and sequencer functions.
