SIP304 Basic Electricity (DC/AC)

The pre-wired basic electricity course includes several unique features not found in other basic electricity courses. The course is conducted around one student insertion panel which provides for a minimum of 25 experiments covering DC and AC circuits. Heavy emphasis is placed on the use of test instruments. Special attention is given to the subject of resonance, Q measurements, and the use of instrumentation in determining the value of Q. The panel has a built in Sweep Generator and RF Signal Generator. The course provides 80 hours of instruction.
