Abstract

The project entails the design of electrical installation works in a school setup. The design

includes the design of lighting circuits as well as power circuitry in the facility. Besides, I have

done a diagram to illustrate how the conduits will run for both the lighting and Power circuits in

the Technical College.

The design of lighting circuits hugely relies on calculations for the illumination levels that are

required for a particular room. The choice of the lamps to use for lighting circuits immensely

depends on several factors including, the luminous efficacy, lifespan of the lamp, lumen

maintenance, and the color of the lamp. In this project I chose to use Fluorescent lamps due to

their long lifespan as well as the fact that they have better efficacy. Determination of the number

of lighting points required for interiors is done by the use of the Lumen Method/photometrical

computation. The computation depends on several factors including, the Utilization factor, floor

area of the room, illumination required, and the maintenance factor. The choice of appropriate

switchgear and protective devices such as circuit breakers and fuses is vital for any installation.

In any electrical installation it’s vital to know the loads that will be used for appropriate line

balancing. In my design the sockets have been connected in ring. The power circuits have been

designed such that they have different circuit breakers with a given number of sockets connected

to a single breaker in order to achieve the required balancing. The installation design also has

ensured that the machines to be used in the hospital have been provided with the appropriate

sockets.
