Course Description
Welcome to the “Motor Control Circuits Course For True Engineers” – a schematic understanding course that teaches the fundamentals of drawing / schematics associated with motor control. Training begins with an explanation of the devices utilized in schematics, such as the auxiliary relay, contactor, and timer.
Later, we’ll cover star-delta starter circuit, Dahlander motor connection, sequential motor switching, and speed control of two-winding motor.
It is ensured that anyone with little to no expertise with schematics can learn and perfect the skill.
Trainer has more than 18 years of field experience, having worked at 11/132/220/500kV substations, a 1263MW power plant, and a 660kV HVDC system. SIEMENS, ABB, GE, SEC, KE, WAPDA, NTDC, ARAMCO, SABIC, and MARAFIQ are some of the firms with whom I have worked.
Trainer has conducted hundreds of online and offline trainings, therefore it will be beneficial to attend this training and gain field experience.
