In this course, students will learn direct current (DC) electrical theory and applications. This course is designed to teach students electrical circuit schematics and diagrams including, charging and storage functions. This also includes circuit operations and electrical fundamentals, which will prepare the student for electrical functions, design, and troubleshooting. Generator and motor maintenance, repair, operations, and troubleshooting will be taught to students, and then demonstrated by the students. Students will design, calculate, build, and troubleshoot a variety of electrical circuits using electrical schematics and the proper testing equipment. Students will learn single phase, alternating current, electrical theory and principles, and their application to energy technology and power generation systems. Students will learn AC electrical circuit schematics and design, including AC electrical component operation, electrical fundamentals, circuit calculation, circuit design, circuit construction, and proper procedures for testing for advanced electrical functions and troubleshooting. Students will complete lab projects, with the use of schematics, troubleshooting electrical faults, disassembly of components for repair, testing, and inspections.
