Motor Control and Troubleshooting

EMS-230 presented by Rockwell Automation. This course provides information on the concepts associated with systematic troubleshooting of electrical motor control systems. Participants use practical application of troubleshooting techniques in exercise scenarios.

After completing this course, students should be able to perform the following tasks:
• List and explain a systematic approach to troubleshooting electrical circuits
• List and describe the purpose and application of various motor control components
• Explain methods for inspecting electrical contacts
• Describe the basic methods of starting a three-phase AC motor using full or reduced voltage
• Describe the basic operation of a three-phase AC motor
• Describe methods for troubleshooting AC motors
• Apply a systematic approach to troubleshooting motor control circuits
• Design and construct motor control circuits
• Implement proper motor control troubleshooting techniques
• Analyze and evaluate faults to determine failed motor control components
