RT10-106: Advanced Electrical for Automation

In this course, students will utilize the prior learning from DC and AC Electrical Theory to advance their knowledge of more advanced electrical circuits. Students will gain knowledge of electrical equipment such as; Programmable Logic Controllers, Variable Frequency Drives, servo motors, and 3-phase power. Power and control circuits will be built to support the student’s practical knowledge of electricity used in factory and process automation environments. Students will work on lab projects, with the use of schematics, troubleshooting electrical faults, repair, testing, and inspections.
