COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
ELTK 3500 (Marine Cabling Installations)
This course is intended to provide the student with the knowledge
and skills necessary to select, install, and terminate cables for
on deck and subsea installations in a marine environment. It will
involve application considerations for construction and selection
of marine cables and connections, on deck electrical Installations
and hazardous area considerations, and sonar, data collection
and Remote Operated Vehicle considerations.
Marine Cable Construction; Submersed Data collection system
and ROV cable considerations; Explosion protection for
Electrical/Instrumentation installations (oil and gas); Connectors
and Terminations (on deck); Connectors and Terminations
(submersed); Splicing and Potting (submersed); Underwater
Equipment Terminations (mechanical)

ELTR 1103 (Electronic Fabrication Techniques)
This a practical electrical/electronic course which enables the
student to obtain practical knowledge in soldering, wire wrapping,
cable formation and test lead fabrication; it also equips the
student to insert and extract electronic components from printed
circuit boards and make repairs to damaged traces on a PCB. In
addition, the student gains knowledge in electrical and hazardous
material safety, proper use and care of hand tools, proper use
and care of equipment, and hazards and prevention of ESD.
