COURSE ORGANIZATION:

This is a three-credit course, which meets
once a week for sixteen weeks, with the final exam during the sixteenth
week.  This is a basic course in transformers, generators, and
both AC and DC motors.  This course covers the operating principles
and characteristics of all these machines and the proper installation
and maintenance procedures required by each. 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES: 

Upon successful completion of this course,
the student will be able to demonstrate, by means of written, oral,
or hands on tests, his knowledge of or ability to identify/understand:

The parts on an AC motor.
The nameplate information on AC motors.
NEMA classifications and frame types.
Motor insulation classes, temperature rise and ambient
temperature.
Development of a rotating magnetic field and motor action.
Torque, speed, horsepower, slip, efficiency and their
relationships.
Types of three-phase motors including: induction,
synchronous, wound rotor, multi-winding, and dual voltage.
The installation of AC motors according to the NEC.
Mo</span><span class="Normal--Char" style=" font-family: 'Arial', 'Arial';

Types of single-phase motors including: split phase,
capacitor, repulsion,

universal, and shaded pole.

The parts of a DC motor.
DC motor nameplate information.
Construction and types of DC motors and generators.
Speed, torque, spe</span><span class="Normal--Char" style=" font-family: 'Arial', 'Arial';

of DC motors.
Speed regulation, constant torque and constant horsepower
for DC motors.
Transformer types including dry, gas, and oil filled,
isolation, potential, current

and power.

Transformer constru</span><span class="Normal--Char" style=" font-family: 'Arial', 'Arial';

Transformer connection diagrams including wye, open
and closed delta, single phase, buck and boost.
Installation of transformers according to the NEC.
Field trips to see these machines.  (2 are planned)

COURSE
CONDUCT:

The student is expected to attend all
class sessions.  Homework is due on the assigned date.  Late
homework WILL NOT be accepted.  If you are going to be absent,
have someone bring in your homework for you, or you can drop it off
in my name at the faculty reception desk-make sure they stamp it with
the correct date.  All tests are closed text and notes unless specified. 
Scratch paper and a calculator may be used.  There are no make-up
tests given, except under extreme unusual circumstances and only at
my discretion.  In this event, a phone call (to my office that same day, with an explanation) is mandatory. 
Otherwise, if you miss a test, that score will be a zero.  If for
any reason class is cancelled on the day of a test, the test will be
given at the next class meeting.  There are two field trips scheduled
for this class.  They are subject to change.  If for some
reason you cannot make the field trip, an alternative assignment will
be given.  Please be courteous of fellow students with regards
to cell phones, beepers, etc.

COURSE GRADING CRITERIA:

Grading will be as follows:

Tests   60% (4) given (No makeup tests)

Homework  18% No late homework Due at beginning of
Class.

Class work                 
12% 10 days-1% each & 2% for essay

Quizzes/Essays 10% (Based on field trip content)

Final Grades will be in accordance
with the following:

90-100%= 4.0   70-74% =  2.0

85-89% =  3.5   65-69% =  1.5

80-84% =  3.0   60-64% =  1.0

75-79% =  2.5     0-59% =  0.0 

Be sure you understand the grading
policy.  If you have any questions, please ask.  If for some reason you are unable to complete
this course, please make sure to contact me so we can discuss all of
your available options.  Failure to do so will obligate me to assign
you a grade of 0.0 which will become part of your permanent record,
including your GPA.
