Post by rjagodowski »

This week we will continue discussing Chapter 7 on Solving Electrical Problems on Monday & Wednesday and then cover Chapter 8 Solving Mechanical Problems on Friday.

Monday, 12/7: The "sniff" test and using a digital multi-meter for trouble-shooting.

Here are three DMM Tutorials from Wisc-online:
Introduction to the Digital Multimeter

DMM - Ohmmeter Connections

Proper Digital Multimeter Placement. (Hint: To get the probes onto the circuit test points, drag the prob until the cross on the probe is over the connection point.)

And a couple of links on power dissipation:
Power Dissipation & Electronics Components

Power Dissipated by a Resistor

Wednesday, 12/9: Chapter 8 plus links from Monday.


Friday, 12/11: Finish up Chapter 8 on Electrical Troubleshooting and then Chapter 7 on Mechanical Troubleshooting.


Some support links: (These were posted back in week #1 and repeated here for convenience.)
