Electric Drives (2 cr)

Evaluation scale

0-5

Objective

Familiarize yourself with industrial electrical drives. The emphasis is on basic structures and dimensions. Studying in this course requires basic knowledge of electrical engineering (calculation skills of DC and AC circuits and knowledge of components). You can apply what you have learned here, for example, in other courses in this module.

EUR-ACE ENGINEERING PRACTICE
