The purpose of this course is to give an overview of the function of an electrical power distribution in an electric power system as well as in industrial systems, of its sub-system functions, its planning and design principles. Tools for distribution analysis are derived. Description of the main components of distribution plant will be given to enhance the understanding of their engineering aspects & practical considerations of their selection.
At the end of the course, the participant will benefit from having a wider knowledge base and appreciation of the basis of planning and design of a distribution infrastructure system from an experience of actual hands-on exercises conducted during the course.
*Professional engineer, it serves as a continuing professional development course that consolidates his/her practical knowledge by strengthening the practice on a firmer theoretical basis i.e. revisiting relevant theory from the practice point of view.
*Engineering consultants who are responsible for the planning and design of power distribution infrastructure of new townships and mixed developments, and site engineers & supervisors, contractors, equipment vendors, project owner’s engineers, architect-planners and approving persons who are involved in or wish to have a deeper understanding of the planning, design and building of electrical infrastructure. It is also for the power system engineer who is engaged in utility work or in large industrial plants.
