STEP 1. Basic circuit: Practice turning the pilot lamp on and off using a breaker.
STEP 2. ON circuit: Use a pushbutton switch to turn the pilot lamp on.
STEP 3. AND circuit: Use two pushbutton switches to build an AND circuit.
STEP 4. OR circuit: Use two pushbutton switches so that when either switch is on, the pilot lamp lights and an OR circuit acts.
STEP 5. Motor circuit: Drive the motor through the push button.
STEP 6. Motor on and reverse circuit: Use a 3 position toggle switch to control the motor. ( on, off reverse )
STEP 7. Basic relay circuit: Light the pilot lamp using a relay.
STEP 8. Self-holding Circuit (1): Build a Self-holding Circuit using a relay sequence.
STEP 9. Self-holding Circuit (2): Modify the circuit from step 8 so that it can be reset using a pushbutton switch.
STEP 10. Modification to the limit switch: Build a motor limit circuit which uses a limit switch, based on Self-holding Circuit.

STEP 1. Circuit modification to use the manual toggle switch: Modify the circuit from Course A, Step 10 to use the toggle switch.
STEP 2. Manual / Automatic Interlock circuit: A changeover switch is used to choose between manual and automatic interlocks.
STEP 3. Circuit to control 2 motors: Using the toggle and pushbutton switches build a circuit to control 2 motors.
STEP 4. Interlocked Motor (1): Using the circuit from Step 3, build a interlock circuit.
STEP 5. Interlocked Motor (2): Complete the interlock circuit from step 4 by adding a pilot lamp.
STEP 6. Interlocked Motor (3): Modify the circuit so that when the motor limit switch is pressed, the motors reverse.
STEP 7. Interlocked Motor (4): Add the Self-holding Circuit (basic memory circuit)(using 2 relays)
STEP 8. Interlocked Motor (5): Modify the circuit so that the limit switch stops the circuit.
STEP 9. Electronic Timer Circuit: Modify the circuit so that it now uses the electronic timer control.
