Egypt Engineering Consultant Electrical study plan

Build a one-page formula sheet covering per-unit conversion, symmetrical components, and short-circuit MVA method, then solve five load-flow and fault problems using it without notes

Compute a 3-phase and single-phase fault current at two bus levels of a simple radial industrial network by hand and verify with software or a spreadsheet model

Explain in writing when to apply per-unit versus actual-quantity analysis and list the base-change formulas from memory

Draw the positive, negative, and zero-sequence networks for a transformer-grounded generator arrangement and annotate where zero-sequence current can flow

Size feeders and protective devices for a multi-storey distribution board using derating factors for ambient temperature, grouping, and installation method

Calculate voltage drop for the longest feeder by both the mV/A/m tabular method and the impedance method, and reconcile any difference

Produce a single-line diagram for a small building service including utility intake, main switchboard, sub-mains, and generator/ATS changeover

Select cable cross-sections for three circuits and justify each choice against ampacity, voltage drop, and short-circuit withstand

Classify the earthing system (TN-S, TN-C-S, TT) for three described installations and state the protective-device requirements for each

Compute prospective fault current at each distribution level and select breaking capacity for every device in the chain

Build a discrimination study between upstream and downstream devices using time-current curves, and identify at least one loss-of-discrimination point

Size a residual current device scheme for socket circuits and justify sensitivity and time delay choices

Map each major design decision from weeks 1-3 to the clause that governs it in the Egyptian Electrical Code and the relevant IEC standard

List the mandatory tests and inspection items required before energizing an installation and state acceptance criteria for each

Identify ten common code non-compliances from a written description of an installation and cite the requirement violated

Summarize differences between Egyptian code requirements and IEC 60364 practice for earthing, conductor sizing, and protection

Design an earthing system for a substation with a given soil resistivity profile, compute grid resistance, and check step and touch potentials against permissible limits

Size a lightning protection system using the rolling sphere method for a described structure and select down-conductor count and spacing

Perform a lumen method calculation for an office and a workshop, then verify illuminance uniformity and select luminaires to meet the target maintained illuminance

Explain the difference between earthing for fault protection and earthing for lightning, and state why bonding of services matters for both

Size a grid-tied PV system for a given daily load profile including array, inverter, and cable selection, and compute the payback period

Write a commissioning test plan listing insulation resistance, continuity, earth electrode resistance, RCD trip time, and protective device tests, with instruments and acceptance values

Describe the procedure for transformer oil testing and interpret a dissolved gas analysis result

Evaluate two energy-efficiency measures for an existing building and quantify annual savings and demand reduction for each

Draft a scope of work and payment schedule for an electrical design consultancy assignment under a FIDIC-style contract, identifying deliverables and milestones

Analyze three ethics scenarios involving conflict of interest, sign-off responsibility, and pressure to relax a safety requirement, and state the correct action with justification

Build a simple earned value report from given project data and interpret cost and schedule variance

List the contractual steps for handling a design change and the documentation required to protect the consultant's position

Complete two full timed mock exams under exam conditions and score each by domain to find weak areas

Re-solve every question missed in the mocks and write a one-line reason for each error

Review the formula sheet, code checklist, and design reports from weeks 1-7 and consolidate into a single exam-day reference

Rehearse the highest-weight domain calculations until each can be completed within the target time per question
