Course Description

Temperature is a critical parameter in almost every industrial, electrical, and environmental system. Accurate temperature measurement ensures safe operation of equipment, process control, energy efficiency, and product quality. Electrical engineers commonly monitor the temperature of transformers, motors, and power electronics to prevent overheating and failure. Temperature sensors are widely employed in manufacturing plants, chemical processing, HVAC systems, and power plants, making it an essential skill for engineers to select and operate these devices correctly.
