Subject 'Electrical Apparatus'Name in Estonian: Elektriaparaadid
General descriptionDefinition of Electrical Apparatus, types, classification and fields of usage. Requirements for electrical apparatus. Physical processes in electrical apparatus, the electric arc.
Low Voltage Apparatus: protection devices: fuses, circuit breakers, overload protection devices, residual current devices, surge arresters, switches, contactors, relays. Medium and high voltage switchgear: disconnectors, short circuits, high-voltage switches and circuit breakers, fuses, reactors. Construction and operating principles of high-voltage apparatus. General aimProvide an overview of main physical processes occurring in electrical apparatus, construction, operation principles and field of usage. Give knowledge and skills for electrical equipment selection, installation, and practical use.
AimThe course provides knowledge about general requirements for electrical safety and electrical protection principles, also about the most important physical processes occurring in electrical apparatus. Gives information about the construction and operation principles of electrical devices. The graduate acquires knowledge how to choose and use electrical apparatus according to the purpose and technical parameters.
Form descriptionLectures, tests, practical works.
Evaluation methodsThe course ends with the final account. Positively executed test and practical work are the prerequisites of the accounting. Test consists written questions within the framework of the lecture material. The final grade will turn out from the average grades of the test and the practical work.
