    Study Notes

    Electrical Engineering Concepts

    • The main function of a substation is to transmit and distribute electrical power.

    Electrical Units

    • 'Kva' refers to kilovolt-ampere, a unit of measurement for apparent power in an electrical circuit.
    • The fundamental difference between 'Kva' and 'Kw' is that Kva measures apparent power, while Kw measures real power.

    Electrical Circuits

    • Voltage represents the potential difference between two points in an electrical circuit.

    Power Plant Design

    • The primary focus of power plant design is to produce electrical power efficiently.

    Building Types

    • Commercial establishments are distinguished from institutional buildings by their purpose and layout.

    Practice of Electrical Engineering

    • The practice of electrical engineering includes designing, installing, operating, and maintaining electrical systems, as stated in the New Electrical Engineering Law.
    • A person is deemed to be in the practice of electrical engineering if they provide professional electrical engineering services that require knowledge and expertise.
    • Professional electrical engineering services require knowledge and skill under the New Electrical Engineering Law.
    • The primary focus of the New Electrical Engineering Law is to regulate and standardize the practice of electrical engineering.

    Excluded Activities

    • Selling electrical materials and equipment is NOT considered part of the practice of electrical engineering under the New Electrical Engineering Law.
