EET 245 - Electric Motor Control

 
Description
This course covers the wiring of AC and DC motors for industrial power. Application and troubleshooting of starting circuits, overload protection circuits, and emergency stop circuits, including with maintenance and repair, will be covered. The use of test instruments, such as digital multimeters, will be presented. Laboratory work will emphasize skill building in wiring industrial scaled circuits.
