X312 Applied Theory II: AC Concepts - 90 Hours 5 Credits
This course completes DC concepts by presenting transient effects of capacitors and inductors and discussing magnetic circuits. AC theory concepts and applications are introduced using general sinusoidal format for AC voltage, current, power and frequency as it applies to resistive and reactive series, parallel and series-parallel networks. Circuit analysis includes mesh analysis, superposition, Thevenin’s and Norton’s theorems. Practical lab exercises incorporate standard test equipment, classroom theory, troubleshooting skills, and electrical safety.

X316 Programmable Logic Controllers 66 Hours, 2 Credits
The course begins with an introduction to digital electronics including numbering systems, gate logic and combinational logic then continuing with applications of digital electronics including encoders, decoders, flip-flops and counters.
The course continues with programming, hook-up and troubleshooting of programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Specific training on ladder logic diagrams, input/output instructions, internal relays, timers, counters, compare and math functions, control instructions, sequencers, retrofitting, and program design using the Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1000 PLC and Rockwell Software RSLogix 500 Programming Software.
