Electrical Power Systems
for Non-Engineers Training Program

Why choose this training course

This Electrical Power Systems for Non-Engineers is dedicated to non-engineers to understand the basic and operations of electrical power systems. Commencing with the conventional method of generation of electricity to the fundamentals of renewable energy electrical power generation. In the transmission and distribution of electrical power the functions of power transformers, circuit breakers, electric motors and earthing systems. Safety and hazards of electricity are the focal points in all electrical installations

Basic single line diagram interpretation is essential for the understanding of the electrical installation power flow. The emphasis of alternating current (AC) systems will encompass the basic electrical units like voltage, current, power, power factor a frequency of a single-phase and three-phase systems. Maintenance culture complimented by standard testing and measuring instruments is essential to ensure the reliability and security of an electrical power system.

This Coventry Academy training course will feature:

• Generation, transmission and distribution of electricity
• Types of AC single-phase and three-phase network systems
• Power and power factor in an AC system
• Protection devices in an electrical installation
• Electrical safety and electric shock hazards

What are the goals?

By the end of this Coventry Academy training course, participants will be able to:

• • Understand the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity
  • Analyse Grounding systems and electrical safety
  • Determine Electric shock risks and arc flash hazards
  • Have a better understanding of electrical faults and protective devices
  • Familiarise with main electrical equipment like transformers, motors and circuit breakers

Who is this training course for?

This training course will greatly benefit all non-electrical personnel of an electrical installation. This will be from the mechanical, civil, operations admin departments. The level of electrical knowledge for these groups of personnel can either be for beginners and intermediate levels.

This Coventry Academy training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

• Mechanical engineering engineers
• Mechanical engineering technicians
• Safety officers
• Civil engineering personnel
• Administrative and management staff

How will this training course be presented?

This training course will utilise a variety of proven adult training techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes presentation and discussion of latest videos and technologies on low, medium and high voltage switchgears. Questions are encouraged throughout, particularly at the daily wrap up sessions. This provides opportunities for participants to discuss with the Presenter specific issues and, if possible, find appropriate solutions. Specific goals of each participant will be discussed to ensure that their needs are fulfilled whenever practicable.
