This online engineering PDH course describes the basic concept, function, types, and the different components of electrical transformers.
A transformer is an electrical equipment that transfers energy from one circuit to another by electromagnetic induction. They are often used to convert between high and low voltages (step-up or step down). Transformers and their components vary depending on the application and are available in several different configurations.
This 5 PDH online course is applicable to electrical and mechanical engineers, maintenance personnel and other technical staff who are interested in gaining a better understanding of transformers.
This P.Eng. continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the function of transformers and their physical characteristics
- Familiarizing with the different components of transformers
- Learning how to identify a transformer as step-up or step-down and state the current ratio of a transformer when given the turns ratio
- Learning the mathematical relationship between the power in the primary and the power in the secondary of a transformer
- Understanding the basics of the different types of transformers

This online PDH course presents the basics of motor and drive systems and briefly describes important terms, relationships, and system design considerations. It also provides a roadmap for finding opportunities to improve motor performance, as well as exploring the economics of motor systems.
Electric motors, taken together, make up the single largest end use of electricity in the United States. In the U.S. manufacturing sector, electric motors used for machine drives such as pumps, conveyors, compressors, fans, mixers, grinders, and other materials handling or processing equipment account for about 54% of electricity consumption.
To achieve cost-effective operation and maintenance of a motor and drive system, operators must pay attention to the entire system as well as to its individual components. Often, when investigating efficiency opportunities, operators are so focused on the immediate demands of this equipment that they overlook the bigger picture, which includes the ways in which system parameters affect all the equipment.
This 6 PDH online course is intended for electrical and mechanical engineers, contractors, manufacturers, building professionals and others interested in learning more about improving motor and drive system performance.
This P.Eng. continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Detecting the indications of a poor system design
- Learning about the different types of electric motors
- Understanding motor operating characteristics
- Selecting motors and drives for their corresponding applications
- Understanding load duty cycles
- Familiarizing with common motor selection problems
