Fleming College

An explanation of the fundamentals of electrical theory, from the molecular structure of matter to the laws that govern the calculation of power in DC circuits. Topics will include the relationships between voltage, current, resistance, and power including Ohm's and Kirchof's laws. Calculations will be made on series, parallel and combination circuits and current flow and power consumption in 2-wire and 3-wire systems will be analyzed.

An introduction to the operation and use of discreet components such as resistors, diodes and transistors will lead into investigating the functions of digital devices such as AND, OR, NANDS, etc. and some flip-flop circuits. Numbering systems and truth tables will be used to explain the operation of these functions. The theory, operation and selection of some basic test instrumentation will also be covered. Including the voltmeter, ammeter, ohmmeter and megohmmeter.

This course gives the student the ability to read, interpret and apply information found in architectural plans, specifications, the Ontario Building code and the Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, with respect to single family dwellings. This will include general rules and regulations, calculation of service size, material take off and preparation of permit application.

Communications I is an introductory course that provides a foundation in college-level communications by teaching students to read critically, write appropriately for a variety of audiences, conduct and cite research, and revise for clarity and correctness. In seminars and labs, students will engage in both independent and collaborative activities, including the development of a digital portfolio designed to help them become more effective communicators in academic and professional environments.

Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to demonstrate the safe operation of common hand and power tools AND to use those tools to install common switching devices, outlets and enclosures while correctly terminating conductors in a residential construction setting. The learner will further be able to demonstrate the installation procedures for non-metallic sheathed cable, armoured cable, LVT, CAT5, RG6, rigid and flexible raceway installation methods. Furthermore, the learner will be introduced to the basic across-the-line motor starter, low-voltage release and low-voltage protection. This course also serves to introduce network cabling concepts, trade safety, codes/standards and installation methods. In this course, the student will gain the knowledge and skills to safely and effectively install, operate and maintain building electronic systems. These systems include structured cabling, AV, telecommunications, network and security wiring in residential buildings.

This course will enable students to apply specific trade related mathematical concepts and acquire foundational skills important in the fields of Construction, Welding, Plumbing, Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning. It is designed to complement and reinforce learning within other trades courses and program areas.

Upon successful completion of this course, the apprentice will be able to apply the requirements of the Canadian Electrical code - Part 1 (CEC) to; identify and interpret the general requirements of the CEC; identify and interpret the CEC requirements for conductor ampacity including free air, above and underground installations, grounding and bonding, wiring methods, class 1 and 2 circuits, receptacles and lighting in residential occupancies, single-dwelling and dwelling units, pools, tubs and spas, and temporary installations; and be able to calculate the service requirements for a residential occupancy, single-dwelling and row-housing.

Upon successful completion of this course, the apprentice will be able to: demonstrate the operation of common hand and power tools; install common switching devices, outlets and enclosures; correctly terminate conductors; demonstrate the installation procedures for non-metallic sheathed cable, armoured cable, mineral insulated cable, rigid conduits, flexible conduits, liquid-tight conduit, electrical metallic tubing, and electrical non-metallic tubing, including supports and tools required; install a 100 amp. residential consumer's service and associated branch circuits; layout a service mast installation; install door, signal and extra-low voltage lighting devices; identify and terminate copper communication and hard wired cables.

This course teaches students to use AutoCAD software to replicate, modify and create electrical drawings and create 3D models using Autodesk Inventors. AutoCAD software fundamentals are taught, including drawing and modifying objects, creating and inserting dynamic blocks, using layers and creating layouts. Students are taught to identify, create and modify basic electrical symbols and how to generate single line, schematic and wiring diagrams. Students are introduced to 3D modelling principals, creating parts and assemblies, multi view drawings, parts lists and assembly presentations.

This course has been designed for students entering trades and technology programs. The course will cover current legislation (O.H.S.A.) and health and safety procedures used in the industry. Students will obtain fundamental level safety certification in WHMIS, Fall Protection, Confined Space Identification, and Hoisting and Rigging. The theory for this course will be offered online and the application component will offered onsite.

This course will allow the student to select, install, configure, calibrate and test pressure, temperature, sound and light sensing, measuring, indicating and controlling devices using both SI and imperial scales to meet the requirements of the process.

Pre-Requisites

• Basic Electrical Theory (ELCT 146) OR Electricity I (ELCT 84)

This course will enable students to apply specific trade related mathematical concepts and acquire foundation skills important in the fields of Construction, Welding and Plumbing. The material covered in this course builds on the material covered in Trades Calculations I.

Pre-Requisites

• Trade Calculations I (MATH 130)

All graduates of diploma programs require general education credits. These courses allow you to explore issues of societal concern by looking at the history, theory and contemporary applications of those issues.

Your program has designated some required general education courses. In addition, you have the opportunity to choose from a list of electives each semester.

Many of these courses and some other general education courses are also available through evening classes, by distance education, or on-line. See our Part-Time Studies Calendar for these opportunities.

You may already possess general education equivalencies from other colleges or universities. Please see the General Education Co-ordinators at the Peterborough and Lindsay locations for possible exemptions.
