REFG 121 will be a 2-hour long lecture-lab combination class. Some of the time will be spent lecturing, using academic course materials. The rest of the time will be spent in a lab setting, practicing the application of skills learned in theory. This course will introduce the student to the basic theories of electricity with an emphasis on applying these to the HVACR industry. It will begin by examining atomic theory, electrical pressure, current flow, resistance, and electrical power. There will be and emphasis on Ohm's Law, series, parallel, and combination circuits. The student will be instructed on electric meters and their use. Alternating current, inductance, and capacitance will be studied. The course will also provide instruction in the components, symbols and circuits used in the HVACR industry.
This class may require participation in several field trips for further understanding of the profession.
