Summary
The design of electrical equipment requires the acquisition of knowledge from the areas of relevant legislation and technical standardization. The design of electrical equipment includes the elaboration of conceptual designs and calculations, the elaboration of circuit diagrams, the technological and material specifications to comply with applicable laws, government regulations and decrees.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
The graduate acquires advanced knowledge for the creation of projects in modern projection systems. Graduate can handle efficiently use the available software tools for creating, processing and management of project. Gets the necessary habits designing according to applicable regulations and standards. This course is mainly focused on the software system Engineering Base.
