Professional Certificate of Competency in Electrical Power System Fundamentals for Non-Electrical Engineers (Online)

This professional development course is designed for engineers and technicians who need to understand the basics of electrical engineering, the fundamentals of electrical design, and how to integrate electrical engineering knowledge into the other disciplines within a corporation.
Receive a Certificate of Completion from EIT.
Learn from well-known faculty and industry experts from around the globe.
Flexibility of attending anytime from anywhere, even when you are working full-time.
Interact with industry experts during the webinars and get the latest updates/announcements on the subject.
Experience a global learning with students from various backgrounds and experience which is a great networking opportunity.
Understand the basics of electrical engineering, the fundamentals of electrical design, and the integration of electrical engineering knowledge into the other disciplines.
Learn to examine AC & DC motors and review electrical lighting and illumination.
Gain in-depth understanding on key concepts of earthing (or grounding) with a strong focus on safety issues, transformers, and power system components in terms of isolators, fuses, and circuit breakers.
Broaden your perspective on areas of electrical engineering safety like electrical power system protection, electrical safety, and customer installations.
This course will begin with a review of basic electrical circuits and electrical laws. You will learn about the fundamental principles of electrical generation, transmission, and distribution. We will then cover electrical distribution in further detail. Electrical measurements, as applied to single-phase and three-phase systems, will be reviewed.

We will cover earthing (or grounding) with a strong focus on safety issues, before we examine transformers, with an emphasis on power transformers as used in the electrical distribution industry. Power system components in terms of isolators, fuses, and circuit breakers will also be discussed.

The course examines AC and DC motors and reviews electrical lighting and illumination concepts. The impact, especially in the modern world of power electronics, is discussed with a demonstration of the possible unpleasant harmonics that can arise from using this powerful technology.

This then leads to the subject of dealing with power quality. Three major topics covered are electrical power system protection, electrical safety, and customer installations. We will also discuss load forecasting, substation automation, the smart grid, industrial data communications, and carbon trading.

This course is not designed to make you a professional engineer, however, it can help broaden your perspective on different areas of electrical engineering. It will give you valuable skills in relation to electrical engineering, to help you become more productive and safer in your career, and in working with electrical engineers, technicians, and managers.
