| Course abstract | |
| The aim of the study course: to provide with an idea and knowledge about higher education, the study process and the study environment at the university and faculty, helping to successfully start studies, questions about the content of the Applied Energy study program and the expected study results are presented. As part of the course, a field trip to LBTU Teaching and research farm Ltd "Vecauce" is implemented. The purpose of the electrical safety section is to acquire knowledge about the effect of current on the human body, first aid, technical operating rules for electrical equipment, electrical safety rules for working with electrical equipment, and other regulations governing electrical safety, which are also important when working with electrical equipment in the further study process. The section has been developed in compliance with the requirements of the Energy Standard of Latvia. | |
