PLC 125 - Industrial Electricity IIC

Min Credits: 1

This is the third course in a sequence of 3 one credit hour courses. These three courses together are equivalent to IND 121 - Industrial Electricity II . The purpose of PLC 125 is to develop the student’s knowledge and skills in the area of electrical safety, DC/AC machines, and basic control circuits. The electrical safety module will focus on lockout/tagout, arc-flash standards, PPE, electrical panels, and overcurrent protection. The DC/AC machines will focus on the wiring and troubleshooting of DC shunt motors, single phase motors (split-phase, capacitor-start, and permanent capacitor), dual voltage transformers, and three phase motors. The basic control circuits will consist of start/stop/jog, dual start/stop, sequence circuits, and reversing circuits. There will also be a module focused on the installation of a PLC system (based on the Micrologix 1200 PLC). Students will learn how to utilize a test equipment and electrical prints to troubleshoot electrical systems.
