Teeside HNC Electrical and Electronic Engineering

[Richard Burns]

Hi guys,

I just finished my EEP module and managed to get a distinction overall. The telephone interview was a lot easier than I thought, tutor actually congratulated me on my distinction. If I can help anyone out get in touch, PM me. Thanks.

Well done, good work and a good offer to others! Nice.

Could use some help with the electrical Services TMA's 2 - 4 to be honest

Congrats
From what I hear on hear that seems to be one of the most difficult courses so a distinction is something to be proud of. Well done.
Personally just handed in TMA 2 of AME. was easier than TMA1 I thought.
Dreading having to to EEP one day. Will do Eng. Sci. next I think. Put off EEP till I have to.
Regards
WeeCh
MAy just come back to you then though.

How ya doing sparkymalarky, i'm over half way through TMA 3 for PLC's after a short break (lack of motivation)

I hope the rest of you are getting on well.

How ya doing sparkymalarky,.

Yeah, So so. Almost finished EEP TMA3 hopefully get it submitted this week sometime. Once I have EEP finished I will be halfway with 4 Modules completed!

What elective modules you planning on SM75k?

I've just requested the project module, this is my last module required. I have only completed ENS,DCS and PLC's through tees.

What was DCS like? Just finishing tma4 of plc and need to purchase another module but not sure? Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi sparkcity, i found DCS really easy but i have worked with DCS for years, there are only 3 TMA's for it and no phone call at the end of the unit. A lot of the answers for the TMA's are in the lessons and the rest is off your own experience. Any more questions just drop me a line.

I have just finished TMA 3 on PLC's what is TMA 4 like?

 

[Sparkscity]

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I have also worked with digital control systems for many years, PLC's, ASI, Profibus etc, is this what the DCS course is about? TMA 4 on PLC's is ok, Colu sends you some software called Ladsim, its a programming simulator program. Depending on the TMA grade you want, pass, merit or distinction depends on how many programs you write in the software. I have really enjoyed PLC's and would like to do another module that will keep my interest up, not like the core modules! Have you done any other non core modules?
Cheers...

I'm afraid not, i was credited for AME,EEP and Comp'ex, and i have completed digital and analogue circuits and sustainability but all these were from my local college but due to a job change i could not finish my hnc off there, which is why i'm with tees. DCS will be an easy module with your experience, it depends on if you want to learn something completely new or just get through another module as quick as possible. I'm not saying you wont learn anything but i'd say i new 85% of the material before i did the module.

hope that helps
