$500 - $1000 Per Week
Vacation Rental Description
Located in a small friendly cul-de-sac, the recently remodeled 1175 sq. ft. home is situated on the thirteenth hole of the beautiful Palm Desert Resort Country Club. Beautifully furnished, this 2 bedroom 2 bathroom home sleeps 7 people and is perfect for 2 couples, a golf group, or a family.
Each bedroom has its own bathroom and spacious closet. Master bathroom is en suite. Many championship golf courses and luxurious spas are minutes away from this relaxing quiet hideaway, as well as fine dining, live entertainment, nightlife and Las Vegas style casino gaming.
Most guests that stay here say they don't want to go anywhere. Views of the fairway with palm trees and three lakes with waterfalls against a backdrop of mountains can be seen throughout the community and give our guests enough eye candy to make them want to stay put.
Sliding glass doors from each room open to your own patio with views of the golf course and the Santa Rosa Mountains. The adjacent pool is a perfect place to enjoy the sun. The club house is a short walk right out the front door.
There you can pick up your cart and hit the greens, grab a snack, or enjoy fine dining. Downhill skiing can be reached by driving for 90 minutes to Bear Mountain or Snow Valley in Big Bear. For a photo tour of this property, please ask for our Quicktime video.

ELECTRICAL SCIENCE
ABSTRACT
The Electrical Science Fundamentals Handbook was developed to assist nuclear facility operating contractors provide operators, maintenance personnel, and the technical staff with the necessary fundamentals training to ensure a basic understanding of electrical theory, terminology, and application. The handbook includes information on alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) theory, circuits, motors, and generators; AC power and reactive components; batteries; AC and DC voltage regulators; transformers; and electrical test instruments and measuring devices. This information will provide personnel with a foundation
for understanding the basic operation of various types of DOE nuclear facility electrical equipment.

Key Words: Training Material, Magnetism, DC Theory, DC Circuits, Batteries, DC
Generators, DC Motors, AC Theory, AC Power, AC Generators, Voltage Regulators, AC Motors, Transformers, Test Instruments, Electrical Distribution

The Department of Energy (DOE) Fundamentals Handbooks consist of ten academic
subjects, which include Mathematics; Classical Physics; Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, and Fluid Flow; Instrumentation and Control; Electrical Science; Material Science; Mechanical Science; Chemistry; Engineering Symbology, Prints, and Drawings; and Nuclear Physics and Reactor Theory. The handbooks are provided as an aid to DOE nuclear facility contractors.

These handbooks were first published as Reactor Operator Fundamentals Manuals in
1985 for use by DOE category A reactors. The subject areas, subject matter content, and level of detail of the Reactor Operator Fundamentals Manuals were determined from several sources.
DOE Category A reactor training managers determined which materials should be included, and served as a primary reference in the initial development phase. Training guidelines from the commercial nuclear power industry, results of job and task analyses, and independent input from contractors and operations-oriented personnel were all considered and included to some degree
in developing the text material and learning objectives.

The DOE Fundamentals Handbooks represent the needs of various DOE nuclear facilities' fundamental training requirements. To increase their applicability to nonreactor nuclear facilities, the Reactor Operator Fundamentals Manual learning objectives were distributed to the Nuclear Facility Training Coordination Program Steering Committee for review and comment.
To update their reactor-specific content, DOE Category A reactor training managers also reviewed and commented on the content. On the basis of feedback from these sources, information that applied to two or more DOE nuclear facilities was considered generic and was included. The final draft of each of the handbooks was then reviewed by these two groups. This approach has resulted in revised modular handbooks that contain sufficient detail such that each
facility may adjust the content to fit their specific needs.

Each handbook contains an abstract, a foreword, an overview, learning objectives, and text material, and is divided into modules so that content and order may be modified by individual DOE contractors to suit their specific training needs. Each subject area is supported by a separate examination bank with an answer key.

The DOE Fundamentals Handbooks have been prepared for the Assistant Secretary for Nuclear Energy, Office of Nuclear Safety Policy and Standards, by the DOE Training Coordination Program. This program is managed by EG&G Idaho, Inc.
ELECTRICAL SCIENCE

OVERVIEW

The Department of Energy Fundamentals Handbook entitled Electrical Science was
prepared as an information resource for personnel who are responsible for the operation of the Department's nuclear facilities. A basic understanding of electricity and electrical systems is necessary for DOE nuclear facility operators, maintenance personnel, and the technical staff to safely operate and maintain the facility and facility support systems. The information in the handbook is presented to provide a foundation for applying engineering concepts to the job. This knowledge will help personnel more fully understand the impact that their actions may have on the safe and reliable operation of facility components and systems. The Electrical Science handbook consists of fifteen modules that are contained in four volumes. The following is a brief description of the information presented in each module of the handbook.
Module 1 - Basic Electrical Theory This module describes basic electrical concepts and introduces electrical terminology.
Module 2 - Basic DC Theory This module describes the basic concepts of direct current (DC) electrical circuits and discusses the associated terminology.
Module 3 - DC Circuits This module introduces the rules associated with the reactive components of inductance and capacitance and how they affect DC circuits. Module 4 - Batteries This module introduces batteries and describes the types of cells used, circuit arrangements, and associated hazards.
ELECTRICAL SCIENCE
Module 5 - DC Generators This module describes the types of DC generators and their application in terms of voltage production and load characteristics.
Module 6 - DC Motors This module describes the types of DC motors and includes discussions of speed control, applications, and load characteristics.
Module 7 - Basic AC Theory This module describes the basic concepts of alternating current (AC) electrical circuits and discusses the associated terminology. Module 8 - AC Reactive Components This module describes inductance and capacitance and their effects on AC circuits.
Module 9 - AC Power This module presents power calculations for single-phase and three-phase AC circuits and includes the power triangle concept.
Module 10 - AC Generators This module describes the operating characteristics of AC generators and includes terminology, methods of voltage production, and methods of paralleling AC generation sources.
Module 11 - Voltage Regulators This module describes the basic operation and application of voltage regulators. Module 12 - AC Motors This module explains the theory of operation of AC motors and discusses the various types of AC motors and their application. This module introduces transformer theory and includes the types of transformers, voltage/current relationships, and application. Module 14 - Test Instruments and Measuring Devices This module describes electrical measuring and test equipment and includes the parameters measured and the principles of operation of common instruments. Module 15 - Electrical Distribution Systems This module describes basic electrical distribution systems and includes characteristics of system design to ensure personnel and equipment safety.
The information contained in this handbook is by no means all encompassing. An attempt to present the entire subject of electrical science would be impractical. However, the Electrical Science handbook does present enough information to provide the reader with a fundamental knowledge level sufficient to understand the advanced theoretical concepts presented in other subject areas, and to better understand basic system and equipment operations.
