Electrical Protection and Transportation Installations for Non-domestic Buil

Aim This unit provides learners with an opportunity to develop the understanding and skills required to design and specify electrical protection and transportation installations. Unit abstract This unit focuses on the principles that underpin the design and specification of electrical protection and transportation installations for non-domestic buildings. Learners will investigate the selection and specification of overcurrent protection devices and explore the design and specification of lightning protection, standby power supplies, fire/smoke detection and alarm systems, and transportation installations. Learners will apply the associated legislation, standards and design guides for electricity, fire and public safety. Learners will also have the opportunity to establish strategies, produce design drawings and perform the calculations needed to size, select and specify the various items of plant and equipment required for electrical protection and transportation installations.
