Credit(s) 2.00
Lecture Hours: 1.00
Lab Hours: 2.00
This course is designed to increase the proficiency of the student in the learning of how electricity is created, distributed, and consumed with direct current. The foundations of circuit flow, electrical calculation formulas, and connecting circuits are created here. These foundational skills will be used to understand how electricity is used and controlled in their career of choice. The student will learn critical thinking, scientific theory, and deductive thought. The emphasis will be on the use of testing instruments and measuring devices. No
