Fund Electricity II

Catalog description

This course introduces key alternating current (AC) principles and their application in industrial electrical systems. Students study transformers, inductance, capacitance, AC measurement, and basic motor troubleshooting. Using standard formulas, learners calculate transformer ratios, inductive and capacitive reactance, impedance, and other essential AC parameters. Through hands-on lab activities, students build and test AC circuits using a digital multimeter and common test instruments, developing job-ready competencies. Emphasis is placed on understanding how electrical components and motors behave under AC conditions to support accurate diagnostics and safe work practices. Students may earn a Smart Automation Certification Alliance (SACA) C-201 Electrical Systems 1 industry micro-credential.
