EHC403: Electrified Hardware Applications and Documentation

32 Hours  |  32 CEPs

RECOMMENDED PREREQUISITES: COR117 – Door, Frame, and Architectural Hardware Applications  |  COR133 – Electrified Architectural Hardware  |  COR140 – Using Codes and Standards  |  COR147 – Introduction to Specification Writing  |  DHC205 – Intermediate Detailing Doors, Frames and Hardware |  DHC307 – Advanced Detailing Doors, Frames and Hardware

One of the most important steps in detailing today's projects is creating the low voltage wiring drawings / diagrams and related documentation for door openings with electrified hardware. In this course you will learn to use a free downloadable computer drawing program (Libre Office Draw) to create your drawings and will return to your workplace with the ability to create drawings for your projects. This course will teach you how to use correct industry recognized symbols and drawing techniques to help you communicate the project's requirements more effectively with the electrician, installer and systems integrators. You will learn how to:

• Create electrified door elevation diagrams
• Create riser diagrams
• Create point-to-point wiring diagrams
• Use relays to control circuits

REQUIRED CLASS MATERIALS: Students are required to bring a PC laptop that is using Windows 7, 8, 10 or WINE. A separate mouse (rather than the mouse pad built into the laptop) is also required.
