Course Overview
PDU (PEB) – Pending approval
This module is designed to equip participants with in-depth knowledge and competency in selected topics in electrical engineering, such as electrical installation design, earthing systems, and lightning protection for the built environment.
Participants will explore the design considerations for societal responsibilities, public safety, environment, and sustainability in the electrical engineering context. Additionally, key components relevant across major industries will also be covered, including lighting, fans, HVAC, pumps, maintenance, automation, motor drives, power conversion, and life cycle costs.
The module will be based on relevant codes of practice from the perspective of practising engineers, and it aims to broaden and enhance engineers’ expertise to remain relevant in the industry.
