Intended learning outcomes
The aim of this course is to provide students with a solid set of basic knowledge in the electrical and electromechanical systems, enabling them to understand the use of electrical power in buildings and industry, aiming the design and dimensioning of an electrical installation, drive control systems and management and automation of electrical systems.
Being the course directed to mechanical engineers, it is intended that students know the advantages, limitations and implications of using electrical power, as well as its risks and the electrical installations safety rules. It is also intended that students become familiar with the language and methods of electrical engineering, easying their future interaction with electrical engineers.
