Industry Training

ST52 Motor Controls (10 days)

This course introduces the student to 600 VAC motor starter and 120 VAC control circuitry. The material leads the learner through the basics of motor control wiring and progresses to more advance circuitry. The student will spend the majority of the time understanding, wiring and troubleshooting progressively more difficult motor control circuits. The student will be continually faults. In addition the course addresses correct tagging procedures. The course explains thoroughly every step in the procedure with discussion on how to perform tasks safely.
