Direct Current Applications Laboratory

Catalog description

This course provides a hands-on learning environment where students construct basic DC circuits in a laboratory setting. Students analyze the circuits’ basic function and prove the concepts and theories learned in the co-requisite DC theory course. Students learn to select and install metering devices in the circuits and practice reading these instruments to collect data. While hands-on reinforcement of direct current circuit theory is the main focus of this course, proper selection and use of metering instruments is emphasized throughout. Laboratory experiments closely parallel subject matter in the DC theory course on a weekly basis. OPEN ONLY Open only to matriculated Electrical Construction and Maintenance students. Co-requisite(s): ECMN 101 Direct Current Theory
