Entry knowledge
The course is designed primarily for students of study programs in their curricula course is placed. It is also designed for students who have already obtained Electrotechnical education (for example, at secondary schools). Other parties interested in the subject, without exception, contact the guarantor, who will decide if the course matter is appropriate for them.
The subject requires knowledge of physics, electrical engineering and human anatomy. Necessary is knowledge about conducting electrical current and its effects on the human organism.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Credit conditions: completion of at least 75% exercise. In the case of lower participation enters vučující as compensation for drafting written work.
Exam: The exam checks knowledge of basic information needed for performing independent activities on electrotechnical devices and it is required from graduates in practice. The exam is combined, with written and oral part, in the presence of a commission. The assessment is: passed or failed. Based on the knowledge proved during the examination, the student is appreciated mark.
The lessons are not obligatory. Missed lessons are not compensated, missed topics are completed on the basis of independent studies.

Aims
The aim of the course is to prepare the students for exam as per regulation ČÚBP and ČBÚ No. 50/1978 Coll. and so – after successful passing of the exam – to get electrotechnical qualification of employees authorised to work independently in electrotechnics, as needed for independnt work with electrotechnical equipment in practical activities of the graduate.
This subject will get students to independent work on electrotechnic arrangements in light of safeness before injury electric streaming and pertinent providing first aid at injuries electric streaming. Students also will learn recognize problem and risk situation associated with electric equipment.
