The TSTC Brownwood campus is welcoming the addition of Electrical Systems and Electrical Motor Control courses as part of the Industrial Systems Training program.

The Electrical Systems course will be taught June 6-10 with Electric Motor Control to follow June 13-17.

Registration for both courses will take place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 4 and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, May 12 at 305 Booker Street in Brownwood.

The Electrical Systems course prepares individuals to connect, adjust, operate, troubleshoot, and analyze electrical circuits using basic electrical components: resistors, capacitors, inductors, DC motors, solenoids, manual switches, relays, fuses, circuit breakers, transformers, and indicators. Other key skills include: adhering to electrical safety rules, reading electrical circuit diagrams, applying Ohm’s Law and Kirchoff’s Law, using digital multimeters, interpreting series/parallel circuits, and assessing power/circuit protection.

The Electric Motor Control course prepares individuals to connect, adjust, and operate electrical motor control circuits using these electrical components: 3-phase AC motors, reversing magnetic motor starters with overloads, drum switches, control relays, timer relays, pushbutton switches, selector switches, limit switches, pressure switches, and float switches. Other key skills include: adhering to motor control safety rules, reading ladder logic circuit diagrams, checking for proper ground connections, wiring motors for high and low voltage, and interpreting common motor control application circuits.

Those who complete the Electrical Systems course and Electric Motor Control course receives a SACA Certification. Smart Automation Certification Alliance (SACA) is ant organization whose mission is to develop and deploy modular Industry 4.0 certifications for a wide range of industries.

SACA’s vision is to provide highly affordable, accessible certifications that significantly increase the number of individuals who possess the skills represented by these credentials, thereby ensuring that companies have the highly skilled workers they need, and individuals are prepared to be successful in an Industry 4.0 world.
