UTIL 1000: Introduction to Powerline Basics,Safety and Climbing
3.00 Credits
Western Nebraska Community College
Prerequisite: Math Placement Exam Th is course serves an introduction to the electric systems. Th e process begins with a macroperspective with a view of the transmission of power throughout the country with interconnection forming a network of electric facilities all across the continent. A schematic of a typical electric system generation and distribution fl ow will serve as a basis for a step-by-step analysis of the generating station to the distribution transformers. Th e unit breaks down to the micro-perspective of a typical electric system that allows for the movement of electrons in a circuit causing the low of electricity and discovery of the relationship that exists between voltage, current and resistance. Th e course also includes the study of the proper use of equipment, materials and specifi cations for construction of various distribution systems, proper use and handling of ropes and related hardware in line construction. Proper and safe climbing techniques are a major element in the orientation. Trainees will create an awareness for safety in the work with electric utilities, a knowledge to address the safety precaution which should be taken before starting, during and completing a job.
