Course abstract

The aim of the study course is to acquaint oneself with: computer programs application for design and making technical documentation, the drawing technology for plans, charts, maps and designs, the standards for energetic systems, symbols for planing and design, how to make symbols library, the drawing methods for electric installation, electronic schemes, power units, lighting installation diagrams, how to complete technical files.

Learning outcomes and their assessment

Knowledge - drawing and reading of electrical schemes, standards, use of scheme designations, understanding of the use of computer software in preparation of documentation - practical works;
Skills - to read and draw electrical and electronic circuits, practical skills in working with graphic computer programs - laboratory works;

Competence - the ability to create, test and apply technical documentation - practical work.

Part time extramural studies:

All topics specified for full time studies are accomplished, but the number of contact hours is one half of the number specified in the calendar

Requirements for awarding credit points

Test.
Accumulative test.
Executed practical tasks, draw:
1. Simple electronics scheme;
2. Complex electronics scheme;
3. Wiring plan for the object;
4. Power scheme for electric drive or power supply;
5. Create your own schema label set based on EN standards.

There should be developed and defended all the practical tasks.

Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work

During the practical classes the students continue to solve the tasks independently until the qualitative result is achieved (the result is evaluated during the next practical classes), the amount of work is 48h.

Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes

All practical tasks are qualitatively fulfilled:
1. Drawing technology learned;
2. Ability to handle software;
3. Proper use of standards;
4. Acquired technical documentation and scheme for reading skills;

5. Careful work and attitude.
