Electrical Motor Controls
This program covers DC motors, single-phase AC motors, three-phase AC motors, motor nameplate data, code requirements, motor components, electronic motor components, packaged motor drives, and motor control diagrams.
This training program includes the following 9 courses:
Module 1: DC Motors
Here you will be shown how a DC motor is constructed, as well as how it operates. You will also be introduced to four different types of DC motors.
Estimated Duration: 75 minutes
Module 2: Single Phase AC Motors
AC motors, or alternating current motors, are used for various applications. Here we will explore the operation of a single phase AC motor, as well as the characteristics of split phase, capacitor start, capacitor start/run, and capacitor run motors.
Estimated Duration: 45 minutes
Modul 3: Three Phase AC Motors
This introduction focuses on the components of a three phase AC motor and the characteristics of squirrel cage, synchronous, and wound rotor motors.
Estimated Duration: 50 minutes
Module 4: Interpreting Motor Nameplate Data
Here you will learn about the items that must be included on a motors nameplate, as well as other fields that appear on the nameplate and there importance.
Estimated Duration: 20 minutes
Module 5: Electrical Motor Components
This is an introduction to buttons, switches, pilot lights, solenoids, relays, AC and DC components, motor starters, control transformers, and sensors used in control systems.
Estimated Duration: 30 minutes
Module 6: Electrical Code
In this module, you will learn about the importance of electrical codes for the safe installation and maintenance of electrical systems to prevent hazards like shock, fire, and explosion, while also teaching you how to navigate and understand key parts of the code.
Estimated Duration: 30 minutes
Estimated Learning Time: 4.3 hours
