ILT 160 — DC Fundamentals
Prerequisite: None This course is designed to provide students with a working knowledge of basic direct current (DC) electrical principles. Topics include safety, basic atomic structure and theory, magnetism, conductors, insulators, use of Ohm’s law to solve for voltage, current, and re sistance, electrical sources, power, inductors, and capacitors. Students will perform lockout/tagout procedures, troubleshoot circuits and analyze series, parallel, and combination DC circuits using the electrical laws and basic testing equipment to determ ine unknown electrical quantities. This is a CORE course. Lecture: 1 hour Lab: 2 hours Contact Hours: 7 Credit Hours: 3
