EEE6210 Practices in Electrical Installation (Classroom & Asynchronous e-Learning)
About This Course
This module is designed to equip participants with in-depth knowledge and competency in selected topics in electrical engineering, such as electrical installation design, earthing systems, and lightning protection for the built environment.
Participants will explore the design considerations for societal responsibilities, public safety, environment, and sustainability in the electrical engineering context. Additionally, key components relevant across major industries will also be covered, including lighting, fans, Heating Ventilation Air-Conditioning, pumps, maintenance, automation, motor drives, power conversion, and life cycle costs.
The module will be based on relevant codes of practice from the perspective of practising engineers, and it aims to broaden and enhance engineers’ expertise to remain relevant in the industry.
What You'll Learn
1. Assess health and safety risks of electrical installations by applying knowledge of mathematics, engineering fundamentals, and electrical engineering principles.
2. Design electrical installations in buildings which are fit for purpose, and meet requirements of code of practices, standards and functional safety.
3. Evaluate health and safety issues and related professional responsibilities—such as risks of electric shock, fires, lightning hazards, and exposure to excessive electromagnetic fields and inadequate lighting—by applying reasoning informed by power engineering knowledge.
4. Uphold professional ethics, responsibilities, and norms in the design and execution of power engineering projects by applying ethical principles and committing to professional conduct.
