- Course Description: Prepares student to design electrical power systems for industrial applications. Focuses on switchgear and motor control centers, ladder logic, motor application, lighting systems, power factor correction, and power quality.
- Please briefly explain why it is necessary and/or desirable to add this course:
- What is the need or demand for this course? (Indicate if this course is part of a required sequence in the major.) What other programs would this course service? Part of the power systems track option for EE students as well as going to be included in a newly proposed certificate.
- Has this course been offered as Selected Topics/Experimental Topics course? If yes, how many times?
- What qualifications for training and/or experience are necessary to teach this course? (List minimum qualifications for the instructor.) Practical workplace experience (5 years minimum) in the field of industrial power distribution. Professional licensure preferred.
- Objectives: This course has the following objectives:
To learn the fundamentals of raceway design including applicable codes and standards
To learn to specify NEMA enclosures, switchgear, and motor control centers
To learn the concepts of ladder logic design as applied to motor and breaker control
To learn how to specify a motor for a particular application
To learn the essentials of lighting system design
- Learning Outcomes: After successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
-apply knowledge of basic math, science and engineering
-design systems, components, or processes to meet desired needs
-identify, formulate and solve engineering problems
-understand professional and ethical responsibility
-communicate effectively
-Recongize the need for, and an ability to engage in lifelong learning

- Attendance Policy: Course Attendance at First Class Meeting Policy for Graduate Students: For structured courses, 6000 and above, the College/Campus Dean will set the first-day class attendance requirement. Check with the College for specific information. This policy is not applicable to courses in the following categories: Educational Outreach, Open University (TV), FEEDS Program, Community Experiential Learning (CEL), Cooperative Education Training, and courses that do not have regularly scheduled meeting days/times (such as, directed reading/research or study, individual research, thesis, dissertation, internship, practica, etc.). Students are responsible for dropping undesired courses in these categories by the 5th day of classes to avoid fee liability and academic penalty. (See USF Regulation Registration - 4.0101,
http://usfweb2.usf.edu/usfgc/ogc%20web/currentreg.htm)
Attendance Policy for the Observance of Religious Days by Students: In accordance with Sections 1006.53 and 1001.74(10)(g) Florida Statutes and Board of Governors Regulation 6C-6.0115, the University of South Florida (University/USF) has established the following policy regarding religious observances: (http://usfweb2.usf.edu/usfgc/gc_pp/acadaf/gc10-045.htm)
In the event of an emergency, it may be necessary for USF to suspend normal operations. During this time, USF may opt to continue delivery of instruction through methods that include but are not limited to: Blackboard, Elluminate, Skype, and email messaging and/or an alternate schedule. Its the responsibility of the student to monitor Blackboard site for each class for course specific communication, and the main USF, College, and department websites, emails, and MoBull messages for important general information.
