Basic Electrical and Electronics

Introduction

The course covers basics of electrical and electronics starting with the basic concepts of Ohm's law, electrical safety, DC network analysis, batteries and power supplies, magnetism and electromagnetism, capacitors, and inductors. AC basic theory and fundamentals such as reactance and impedance R, L, C and Z, transformers, polyphase circuits, active and reactive power, and power factor, and single and three-phase motors are then covered.

Moving from electricity to basic electronics, the course presents semiconductors construction and operation, diodes characteristics, diode circuits and applications, thyristors and triac operation and applications, isolated gate bipolar transistors IGBT, DC Motors drives, and inverters and AC motor drives. The course then delves into an analog and digital electronic module that covers operational amplifier and analog electronics basics, Op-Amp circuits, and applications, fundamentals of digital electronics, logic gates, and logic circuits and applications.

Objectives

    By the end of the training, participants will be able to:

    • Understand the concepts and terminology of electrical circuits and electronics.

    • Know more about the main components of electrical circuits.

    • Grasp basic knowledge about AC basic theory and fundamentals.

    • Overview The basics of electronics.

    • Get familiar with analog and digital electronic

Training Methodology

This is an interactive course. There will be open question and answer sessions, regular group exercises and activities, videos, case studies, and presentations on best practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share with the facilitator and other participants on what works well and not swell for them, as well as work on issues from their own organizations. The online course is conducted online using MS-Teams/ClickMeeting.

Who Should Attend?

Electrical and electronic engineers, operations and maintenance staff of substations, generating stations, electrical distribution networks, and transmission. Anyone who may be engaged in the selection, testing and commissioning, protection, maintenance, and trouble-shooting of power systems will find this course highly useful.
