About the course.

The goal of the course is for the student to gain in-depth knowledge of the function and structure of the electrical system and its components. The student will gain knowledge of direct current, single-phase and three-phase alternating current, and the effect of different loads on the electrical system. The student gains skills in carrying out measurements and simple troubleshooting in an electrical circuit. In addition, the student will gain the skills to interpret, produce and make changes to drawings and diagrams. The student gains the competence to calculate voltages, currents and power in order to assess the appropriate fuse size in the property. In addition, the student gains the competence to decide whether work near live parts can take place according to current safety regulations, and which protective equipment is required. The student gains the skill of turning detailed knowledge into systems thinking.
