Electrical System Design
( Course Duration in Hours : 60 Hrs.)
1. Understanding Requirements
Load Analysis: Identifying the power requirements for different electrical loads (machinery, lighting, HVAC, etc.).
Site Survey: Assessing the physical location for installation constraints.
Regulatory Standards: Reviewing applicable codes, such as IEC, NEC, or local standards.
2. Preliminary Design
Single-Line Diagram (SLD): Developing a simplified representation of the electrical distribution network, showing how the main components (transformers, switchgear, etc.) are connected.
Load Calculation: Determining power consumption and sizing the electrical system components (transformers, switchgear, cables) based on demand.
Power Source Design: Deciding on the type of power source (utility grid, generators, renewable energy sources).
3. Component Selection
Cables and Wiring: Choosing appropriate conductor sizes based on current ratings and voltage drops.
Transformers: Selecting transformers based on load demand, voltage levels, and system configuration.
Switchgear & Protection Devices: Sizing circuit breakers, fuses, and relays for system protection.
Earthing/Grounding: Designing an effective earthing system to prevent electrical hazards.
4. System Protection Design
Short Circuit Analysis: Evaluating the potential fault current in the system and selecting devices to protect against overcurrent and short circuits.
Coordination Study: Ensuring that protection devices (relays, breakers) are coordinated for proper fault isolation without unnecessary downtime.
Arc Flash Study: Assessing potential arc flash hazards and designing the system to mitigate risks.
5. Lighting Design
Interior/Exterior Lighting: Designing lighting systems based on luminance requirements and energy efficiency standards.
Emergency Lighting: Integrating emergency and exit lighting for safety in case of power failure.
6. Distribution System Design
Cable Routing: Planning cable trays, conduits, and routing paths for minimal interference.
Busbar Design: For high-power systems, busbar sizing and configuration need to be considered.
7. Control and Automation
Building Automation Systems (BAS): Integrating controls for lighting, HVAC, and security systems.
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA): Designing SCADA systems for monitoring and controlling electrical equipment.
8. Energy Efficiency & Sustainability
Energy Auditing: Incorporating energy-saving strategies and selecting energy-efficient equipment.
Renewable Integration: Designing systems for solar, wind, or other renewable sources where applicable.
9. Documentation and Approvals
Detailed Drawings: Creating final circuit diagrams, layouts, and equipment details.
Bill of Materials (BOM): Listing all components required for installation.
Compliance Review: Ensuring the design meets regulatory requirements and securing necessary permits.
10. Installation and Commissioning
Installation Supervision: Overseeing the installation process to ensure it matches the design.
Testing & Commissioning: Conducting tests to validate system performance, including insulation resistance, continuity checks, and functional testing of protection systems.
11. Operation & Maintenance Planning
Maintenance Strategy: Developing a preventive maintenance plan for the system.
As-Built Drawings: Updating design documents to reflect any changes made during construction for future reference.
