Course Objectives:
The objective of this course is to equip students with essential knowledge in
instrumentation and measurement. Students will learn to select and use appropriate
instruments for accurate measurements in electrical systems. By course end, they will
be skilled in analyzing, troubleshooting, and applying measurement techniques in
practical scenarios.
