Course Description

The Electrical Technology Program – Maintenance Electrician provides participants with the academic coursework required for maintenance journey worker electrical apprentices.  Participants gain foundational skills in applied math and electrical safety as well as the required subjects in AC/DC theory, motors and motor control maintenance, NEC, and transformers. This program fulfills requirements of HRS 448E, 80 hour electrical academic coursework.

Learner Outcomes

Upon successful completion the participant will:
  1. Apply mathematical reasoning to solve technical problems
  2. Analyze the nature of DC and AC electricity and the quantities, units and measurements associated with it
  3. Demonstrate the identification of the abbreviations, acronyms, and symbols of DC and AC electrical components in an electrical circuit, and the function of each one
  4. Calculate the voltage, resistance, and current for series, parallel, and series/parallel circuits for DC and AC circuits
  5. Apply the understanding of Resistance, Inductance, and Capacitance to DC and AC circuits, and its application to Power Loads
  6. Correlate the requirements, standards and information in the NEC to the proper installation or modification of electrical systems, circuits, equipment and conductors
  7. Demonstrate the function and proper use of electrical tools and test instruments used in the installation, maintenance and troubleshooting of motors and motor control systems
  8. Demonstrate and explain how AC and DC motors and their control mechanisms interact with other components in an integrated electromechanical or mechatronic system
  9. Integrate a coordinated methodology of measurements and adjustments on motors and motor control components in an electromechanical or mechatronic system
  10. Demonstrate how to protect motors and prevent motor failure from operating outside of their physical and/or electrical specifications
  11. Develop a troubleshooting methodology to localize, identify and document causes of malfunctions in motor circuits, based upon the technical documentation
