Summary
Electric devices can cause electric shock and also considerable property
damage. These states caused by failures e.g. inexpert manipulating and
direction breach can be reducted by prevention. Student will know main
principles of preventive organisation and technical activity.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Students will be acquainted with the basic preventative measures to minimize the risk of appearance of the failures and its results in electrical devices.
