MEC 10000 Basic Electricity & Controls

(3 cr.) Lecture-Lab: 2-2
Offered: V
Industry relevant fundamentals of AC/DC electrical systems are introduced in subject areas including safety, electrical circuits, measurement, circuit analysis, inductance, capacitance and transformers. Relay logic control circuits are presented for students to understand in commercial and industrial applications. Additional concepts include solenoid valves, sequencing controls, time delay functions, proximity sensors, photo electric sensors and Hall-effect sensors. The learning environment will be a combination of theory-based concepts and hands-on applications using industry recognized equipment and materials. Included in this course are previous modules: ELT-10103, ELT-10104, ELT-10112, ELT-20313, and ELT-20407.
