EGT 2 Wiring installation for lighting and appliance circuits

The wiring installation training module “Lighting and appliance circuits” is a project-based multimedia training system covering the following topics:

• Wiring circuits, planning, calculations

• Cables, calculation, wiring

• Sub-distribution, planning,

• VDE conformant safety measures

Different software packages are used to work through the various training stages in a training system that very closely follows actual practice. The training software is specially designed for educational use and provides hierarchical, structured guidance to the student. This provides a considerable boost to the self-learning aspect of the system.

The training objectives are structured as follows:

• Installation of on-off and intermediate circuits

• Installation of multi-switch circuits

• Installation multi-circuit switches

• Installation of circuits with current pulse relays

• Dimming fluorescent lamps

• Dimming halogen lamps

• Installation of a motion sensor for external lighting

• Installation of multi-functional comfort switches

• Protective measures to prevent electric shocks

• Testing RCDs

• Insulation measurements, earth measurements, loop resistance

• Testing rotating fields, protective earth measurements, equipotential bonding measurements

• Lightning and excess voltage protection

• Documentation, handover and test report
