Electrical Installation Guide
General rules of electrical installation design
This chapter presents the general rules for designing an installation and presents the involved IEC standards. It gives help in calculation of installed power loads.
Connecting to the MV utility distribution network
This chapter presents the main methods of connection to the MV utility distribution network.
MV & LV architecture selection guide
Given a particular building, we show how to select the right solution during pre-design and budget step: find a compromise between costs and ratings of the installation during its whole life cycle.
LV Distribution
Conception rules of an electrical installation. System earthings.
Protection against electric shocks
This chapter explains how to determine protective devices in order to protect people from direct & indirect contacts and to protect equipments and goods from fire risks.
Sizing and protection of conductors
Practical methods for conductor sizing and protection are given.
LV switchgear: functions & selection
The basic functions of LV switchgear are described, as well as the selection rules for ensuring the protection coordination.
Protection against voltage surges in LV
The effects of lightning are described. Protective devices are proposed and implementation rules are given.
Energy Efficiency in electrical distribution
Power monitoring and control system contributes to global "energy efficiency". Such a system is of high benefice for the owner of an electrical network.
Power factor correction and harmonic filtering
This chapter explains how power factor correction is implemented in LV electrical installation. Practical examples are given.
Harmonic management
The origin and effects of harmonics are described. Measurement and filtering methods are proposed.
Characteristics of particular sources and loads
