UNDERSTANDING BASIC ELECTRICITY FOR ELECTRICAL SAFETY July 1, 2009 - June 30, 2010
Part 1 – You will gain an understanding of basic theorems as applied to codes and standards. You will be trained in the four secrets of electricity and how three phase and a single phase systems operate. This course covers AC/DC theory as applied in real world situations to codes and standards and provides the basic understanding of circuitry, motors, and transformers theory as applied to codes and standards applications is also given. Included are the four secrets of electricity, power formulas, how to three phase systems, series and parallel circuits. Also included is how to calculate amperage, power, horsepower and wattage.

Part 2 – You will be prepared from a practical standpoint to understand how power laws, over-current protection, and wiring methods apply to codes and standards. This course will give you a greater understanding of how theory is applied to codes and standards. You will learn the theoretical intent and purpose of code making bodies and how codes and standards are applied in real world situations. Included are motors, motor controls, motor application, motor torque and speed. Also included with motors are over-current protection and conductor sizing along with understanding schematics, wiring diagrams. Transformer information is included on the basics of transformers, transformer theory, transformer circuitry, single and three phase systems, how to size a transformer and over-current protection requirements.
