Electrical system courses for non electrical engineers
Electrical system courses for non electrical engineers
(OP)
I am a mechanical engineer and live in Dallas, Texas area. I am looking for a electrical system training course that is offered for non electrical engineers, mainly focuses on design of electrical distribution systems in industrial and commercial buildings, including service to all types of loads, such as motors driving chillers, pumps, and fans associated with all types of HVAC systems.
Currently University of Wisconsin in Madison offers great courses but it's too costly for me to travel and stay there for few days.
This is the link that explains the course for your reference.

Electrical Design of Commercial and Industrial Buildings

The one by Clark is rather dated - especially with respect to lighting and low-voltage systems, but still an excellent book. I can't speak for the other one.

Just accept/respect that there are different walks of the trade. I never do anything structural, chemical or mechanical. And I have never contemplated a crash-course in any of those disciplines either.

I could no longer find it in their system (no surprise) but an ex-employer of mine still has them duplicated on their site:

Both of them had mechanical and HVAC backgrounds and felt the class was excellent, not sure how often he puts them on any more, but I know one of the customers took the class in the Houston area.
Another option may be AVO Training in Dallas, not sure if they have exactly what you are looking for but they may be able to help and are close to you,
