The pronunciation of the speaker was very bad. The scheme classes where too difficult to understand. By the way, I would recommend with an average score

yes , nut i need calculation to select mb size and specs , overload, cable size

Hello, It was a very well explained Course. However, I followed the course completly but cannot get the certificate, can you advice on this ? Thanks

By Ruqaiya Chhipa on 2/14/2025

It was good but a bit fast and less explanatory as compared to the beginner course on electrical schematics. For me, the control and protection circuits needs more understanding. The concepts of digital inputs/outputs, analogue inputs/outputs and their connection to the control and protections circuits are not clear. I would appreciate if more resource material expalining tehse configuration could be added in the course. It would be also helpuful if few examples of more complex circuits integrating different features of motor control circuits specifically softstarter and VFDs could be provided.

It is really good course for someone who is working in industry. One thing I am not satisfied is I found difficulties to download it. I hope this issue will be solved.

By Rafael Segnini on 11/6/2022

I like the course as a refreshment of previous working experience I had few years ago and prepared to jump back to the field. Thank you so much for the opportunity.

Very good material, but please reduce in future courses the use of the animation of the women/teacher as this course is addressed to adult and not children.

By Keith Jarrell on 4/2/2022

This was really good. I learned a lot and the quizzes helped too. I definitely know more than I did before I started. If you are going to do this one, I'd recommend taking their Schematic and General Arrangement courses too. They are all tied together.

By Rommel C. Orzales on 10/23/2021

This is absolutely a good resource for those who want to improve their knowledge, just like me, with controls on motor. It's definitely worth it and a tons of gratitude to those behind of this online learning material!

By Shubham Yadav on 8/24/2021

The course is amazing and above expectations! This intermediate course on motor circuits is very helpful for understanding, reading and drawing electrical schematics. Educator has explained difficult concepts in a very simple manner. Keep it up!
