Electrotechnology - Basic - Dag

Electrotechnology - Basic, from distribution boards to electrical drive technology.

During the course Electrotechnology – Basic you will learn how to fix simple faults and perform maintenance on electrical installations. Think of measuring contacts and measuring voltage with a multimeter and Duspol. You will gain basic knowledge of electrical engineering and learn to recognize components.

The Electrotechnology – Basic course is electrical engineering for starters.

The course Electrotechnology – Basic takes 4 course days with 3 half days of practical training.

Electrical engineering - basics: distribution system
- Purpose and structure of a distribution system
- Direct current, alternating current, three-phase current, 1- and 3-phase network, phase, neutral and earth

Basic electrical engineering: switching technology
- Layout and function of switch cabinets
- Explanation of the terms 'voltage, current and resistance' and the relationship between them
- Function of switching components and safety devices

First-line inspection of electrical installations
- Triggered safety devices, fuse, circuit breaker, earth leakage circuit breaker
- Deficiencies in cables: insulation, feed-through and attachment
- Overheating (temperature damage) and contamination

First-line faults in distribution systems and switching technology
- Simple diagrams and drawings
- Measuring voltage using the right measuring equipment
- Locating faults using a diagram and measuring equipment

Basic electrical drive technology
- General structure of an electric drive
- Drive motors: three-phase and direct current motors, servo motors, stepper motor
- Principle of various types of sensors

Inspection and first-line maintenance and faults electrical drive systems
- Performing inspections on drive systems
- Simple diagrams and drawings: direct starter, difference between main and control current diagrams
- Measuring voltage and current using the correct measuring equipment
- Locating faults using a diagram and measuring equipment

Study load:
The preparation for each lesson takes an average of 2 hours. In the online learning environment you can see whether questions, cases and assignments are available for this course.

Access to the online teaching material:
- Unlimited access to the teaching material via MijnROVC
- Interaction with the teacher (up to 2 months after completion)

After the course Electrotechnology – Basic you will be able to:

- Perform simple maintenance tasks
- Resolve first-line faults

Completion:
You finish the course with a digital exam. At the end of the course, you choose the place, date, and time of your exam. The exam must take place within 6 weeks after the last course meeting. After the exam, you will receive your result as soon as possible. If you pass the exam, you will receive a diploma.
