AND ESTIMATION
Preamble: Electrical System Design would provide general awareness on IS Product standards /
Codes of Practice, The Electricity Act 2003, CEA Regulations and Rules, NEC etc. related to
Domestic, Industrial and Commercial Installations. It will also help in the design of Main and
Sub Switchboards and distribution system for a medium class domestic and industrial electrical
installations. Design of lighting system and selection of luminaries. Selection of Underground
cables, Standby generators, lifts and with all involved auxiliaries. Design and selection of power
distribution system with power and motor loads for a medium industry. Electrical system design
for High-rise buildings with rising main/ cable distribution to upper floors including fire pumps.
Design of indoor and outdoor 11kV substations including selection of switching and protective
devices for an HT consumer. Essential safety requirements for the electrical installations for
Recreational buildings.
Prerequisite: Basics of electrical power systems, circuit analysis and fault level calculations.
Course Outcomes: After the completion of the course the student will be able to:
CO 1 Explain the rules and regulations in the design of components for medium and high
voltage installations.
CO 2 Design lighting schemes for indoor and outdoor applications.
CO 3 Design low/medium voltage domestic and industrial electrical installations.
CO 4 Design, testing and commissioning of 11 kV transformer substation.
CO 5 Design electrical installations in high rise buildings.
