automation-asset.jpgThis course is designed for all personnel who need knowledge of basic electricity. Basic electricity theory is explored, identifying component operations in energized and de-energized states. This course includes safety fundamentals and safe operation awareness.

During this course, participants will have opportunities to complete paper exercises proving theory and relationship to electrical devices. These paper exercises will aid understanding of the major topics learned. The major topical fundamentals assist with the importance of the NEC and its role in industry, identifying AC and DC, electrical power and measurement; and safety applied to energizing and de-energizing circuits. All technology is provided for student use in the classroom by Rockwell Automation. It is not necessary for students to bring any technology with them when attending this course.

At the completion of this course, participants will: 
• Learn and understand fundamental electrical concepts and terms 
• Learn and understand about sources of electricity; how it's produced and distributed 
• Learn and understand variations of wiring devices
• Learn and understand input devices, sensors and switches; identifying normally open and normally closed states
• Learn and understand output devices
• Learn and understand multi-meter use
• Learn and understand safety fundamentals around electricity
