Electrical Drawings and Control Circuits

Introduction

This GLOMACS Electrical Drawings and Control Circuits training seminar begin with the development of various relevant drawings and symbols representing devices that are vital in all electrical installation to ensure continuity and efficient operations. The primary and fundamental tool for troubleshooting and maintenance of an electrical installation is to understand and interpret electrical drawings and ladder diagrams.

Electrical symbols, schematic, and wiring diagrams facilitate the operations of the electrical installation equipment. This programme will cover all these aspects of electrical blueprint reading and the tracing of circuits.

It will familiarise engineers and technicians with the various standards and practices, also, to understand the power flow and equipment installed. As fitted diagrams and ladder diagrams will we presented to correlate with the electrical equipment installed. Tracing of electrical circuits with the relevant wiring diagrams will be demonstrated to ensure correct methods of troubleshooting.   

This GLOMACS training seminar will highlight:

• The interpretation and understanding of standard electrical symbols
• The characteristics of single line diagrams
• The importance of ladder diagrams
• Using diagrams for circuit tracing
• Troubleshooting electrical system using diagrams

Objectives

At the end of this GLOMACS training seminar, participants will learn to:

• Describe the various types of electrical drawings
• Appreciate the importance of single line diagrams
• Analyse the various electrical ladder drawings
• Explain the operation of the electrical equipment using wiring and schematic diagrams
• Recognise the symbols in electrical drawings

Training Methodology

This GLOMACS Electrical Engineering course will ensure participants' understanding and importance of the set of drawings in an electrical installation. Each seminar participant will receive a copy of the comprehensive seminar notes. The presenter will outline and discuss the topics using computer displays, videos, and PowerPoint presentation. The seminar is designed to have an interactive format to maximize delegate participation. Questions and answers are encouraged throughout and at the daily sessions.
