Single and 3-Phase electrical circuit basics A to Z

This course was written in such a way that someone who does not have any electrical work experience will understand it. However, most people can learn something from this course even if they have previous electrical work experience or knowledge. It takes roughly one day to work through this course.

By the end of this course, we will have a fair understanding of;

1. Electrical Circuit Basics.

• Voltage

• Current

• Resistance

• Power

• Energy

• Direct Current

• Alternating Current

• Series

• Parallel

• Ohm's Law with examples

• Protective Systems

2. Single and Three-Phase Electricity.

• Single and Three-Phase power generation

• Single and Three-Phase transmission

• Single and Three-Phase circuit layouts

3. Electrical Transformers.

• Step-up Transformers

• Step-Down Transformers

• Single-Phase Transformers

• Three-Phase Transformers

4. Electrical Test Equipment and how to use them.

• Multimeters

• Clamp meters

• Insulation Resistance Testers

• PSC / Loop Testers

• Phase Rotation Testers

• ELCB / Polarity Testers

• Earth Resistance Testers

5. Single and Three-Phase motors.

• Single and Three-Phase motor control circuits

• Wye/Star and Delta configurations

• Star-Delta starters

• Single and Three-phase motor inspections. (External and internal)

• Fault Finding.

Just like this course description, the videos are short, on topic and straight to the point.

This course does not qualify you as an electrician and does not authorize you to conduct any electrical work. This course is not math intensive, but we will cover a few basic formulas. If mathematics is not your strong point, there is no shortage of online calculators that can do the calculations for you.
