ELECTRICITY WITH PLCSEGU 1042 Occupational Safety(3 credits)Pre-requisite: NoneThis course emphasizes the fundamental concepts related to safety and health in the industrial,manufacturing, and servicing industries. Prevention and remedial measures to face accidents caused byelectric shocks, and toxic gases inhalations are discussed. Regulation of the Department of Labor and OSHAapplicable to these industries is also covered.MATE 1220 Applied Mathematics(3 credits)Pre-requisite: NoneThis course of mathematical applied it includes two parts. In first it is examined the basic operations ofmathematical such as: sum, reduces, multiplication and division of whole numbers, decimal andfractions.In second part is emphasized in: the application of the basic concepts of algebra, geometry,trigonometry, the graphs and solution of numerical problems applied to the technology.INGL 1106 Basic English I(3 credits)Pre-requisite: NoneThis course is intended to promote the correct use of the English language, as a tool in the professionaldevelopment of the student. It will reinforce the basic skills such as: listening, speaking, reading, writing,and understanding new vocabulary.Once this course is completed, the student will have a better understanding of the English language forfuture job opportunities.ELED 1041 Fundamentals of Electricity(3 credits)Pre-requisite: NoneThis course is for technical programs’ students needing to apply the basic concepts of electricity in orderto operate instruments and equipments to carry out occupational projects. In the first portion, DirectCurrent Circuits (DC), the students will get acquainted the theories, parameters, and devices which arenecessary to design, modify, and built direct current electric circuits. In the second portion, AlternateCurrent Circuits, the students will study the theories related with generators, transformers, the concept ofinductance and its effect in AC circuits, alternate current sources identification, sinusoidal signals,capacitance, filters and impedance.LATE 1201 Electrical Instrumentation- Lab(3 credits)Pre-requisite: Concurrent with ELED 1041This course is designed to apply the discussed theories in course ELED 1041 by means of theconstruction of circuits of current direct and it alternates. The suitable use of measuring instruments isemphasized and tests. It is verified by means of measurements, the theories and properties of electricalcircuits of direct current. The relations will settle down between energy, the electrical charges, thevoltage, current, resistance and power.In the part of application of theories and properties of the alternating circuit emphasis will occur in the useof: oscilloscope, power plants, generators of signals and others. In addition, the student will use inducers,transformers and other electrical devices.ELED 1093 Illumiation(3 credits)Pre-requisite: NoneIntroduction to the theory of lighting. Design of lighting systems for commercial and residential buildings.[183]
