Requirements

No pre-requirements for this course. This course will teach you from zero to hero in classic controls. It is actually the first and fundamental course that every Control Engineer or Technician needs at the beginning of their career

Description

This course is all about Industrial controls topics which you need if you are starting your career as an automation and controls engineer. You will need this course if you are responsible about the process controls part in a production line. This course covers all the basics and details about controls circuits for 3 phase induction motor and how to build them from scratch. We will first start with an introduction about classic controls, then we will go to the circuit components that are used to create Industrial controls circuit, For these components, we will cover its definition, working principle and types, We will also see engaging animations for our lectures and circuits. Then we will design the most common circuits that are used in the industry and then we will simulate them; if our simulation is successful I will build it by hand wire by wire. In this course you will understand the induction motor more and its windings and terminals. We will also discuss the voltage in star and delta connection. Finally, we will try to select our power components for a project in which we will calculate the Full Load Current and based on that we will choose our component’s sizes according to IEC and NFPA Standards.
