Electrical Building Services Engineer

Pathway Overview

The Electrical Circuits Pathway is an online course designed to equip learners with a solid understanding of the principles of DC and AC circuits and the components that make them up, including resistors, capacitors, and inductors. learnerss will learn how to analyze single-phase and three-phase AC circuits, calculate currents, and determine the power flowing to the electrical load from the electrical source. They will also be able to calculate the power factor in an AC circuit and suggest solutions to improve it. The course content covers a range of topics, including the power triangle, instantons power, active power, reactive power, and apparent power. Learners will learn about the effects of power factor on electrical systems and the details of power factor correction. They will also be introduced to electrical measurement equipment and how to use it effectively. To ensure that Learners have the requisite skills and knowledge to apply these principles in real-world scenarios, the course includes hands-on activities such as manual calculations, computer simulations using MATLAB/SIMULINK, and measurement equipment usage. Upon completion of the course, Learners will have a solid understanding of DC and AC circuits, including their components and analysis. They will be able to apply this knowledge to real-world scenarios and use computer simulations and measurement equipment to verify their results.
