EET 1210 - Electrical Systems Troubleshooting

3 Credits

Prerequisite(s): EET 1050
This course is a hands-on application of electrical prints and diagrams for all manufacturing technologies. Manufacturing utilizes many technologies that typically blend, such as Process Control, Electromechanical, Electro-Pneumatic, PLC, and VFDs. This course examines those interrelationships and uses these relationships as a basis for troubleshooting. The course begins with a concentration on electrical safety, by employing arc flash protection equipment and lock-out/tag-out procedures. The focus shifts to using NEMA (US) and IEC (International) symbols and diagrams to draw and build circuits. These drawings will be interpreted to employ the proper use of electrical meters in testing and troubleshooting these industrial power and control circuits. Industrial wiring diagrams, standards and symbols are used to build, test, and diagnose industrial power and control circuits with Process Control, Electromechanical, Electro-Pneumatic, PLC, and VFDs.
