8 weeks · About 6 hours per week
Electrical Fundamentals and Circuit Theory
State and apply Ohm's law, power formulas and series/parallel resistance rules to at least 20 numeric panel-circuit problems without reference notes.
Compute voltage, current and power at each branch of a mixed series-parallel control circuit and verify the totals balance.
Explain how inductance and capacitance behave in AC control circuits, including phase difference and power factor, in your own written summary.
Draw and label the phasor relationship for a simple R-L control coil circuit and calculate impedance and current from given values.
Your checkpoint
A handwritten problem workbook of 20 solved circuit problems with a one-page formula sheet, self-marked against worked solutions.
Electrical Fundamentals and Circuit Theory & Motor Control Circuits and Starting Methods
Describe the construction and operating principle of DC and three-phase induction motors, including slip and rotating-field production.
Differentiate DOL, star-delta, autotransformer and soft-starter starting methods by starting current, torque and typical application.
Trace the power and control path of a DOL starter circuit from supply through contactor, overload relay and push buttons.
Calculate full-load current for given motor ratings and select an appropriate starter type with justification.
Your checkpoint
A labelled hand-drawn DOL starter schematic plus a comparison table of four starting methods covering current, torque, cost and use case.
Motor Control Circuits and Starting Methods & Control Panel Components and Symbols
Draw and explain forward-reverse and star-delta control circuits, including interlocking and timer operation.
Identify and correctly draw standard contactor, relay, timer, push-button, limit-switch and overload-relay symbols from memory.
Interpret a given control-panel schematic and produce a terminal-by-terminal wire list from it.
Explain contactor coil ratings, auxiliary contact numbering and holding versus interlocking contacts with examples.
Your checkpoint
A complete star-delta control schematic with an accompanying terminal wire list and symbol legend, checked for interlocking correctness.
Domestic and Industrial Wiring Installation & Wiring Materials, Conductors and Accessories
Select conductor size, insulation type and current rating for given domestic and industrial load schedules.
Compare wiring systems (conduit, casing-capping, cable tray) and justify a choice for a workshop panel installation.
Describe the wiring of a distribution board, including sub-circuit division, MCB selection and busbar arrangement.
List the accessories needed for a small industrial panel room and state the purpose of each.
Your checkpoint
A load schedule for a small workshop with selected cable sizes, MCB ratings and a wiring-system justification note.
Protection, Earthing and Safety Practices & Electrical Measuring Instruments and Testing
Distinguish earthing types (plate, pipe, strip) and calculate earthing conductor size and earth resistance targets.
Explain the role of MCB, MCCB, ELCB/RCCB, fuse and surge protection in a panel and select devices for given fault conditions.
Demonstrate correct use of multimeter, megger, clamp meter and earth tester, including safety precautions before each test.
Interpret insulation-resistance and earth-resistance readings and decide whether a circuit passes or needs attention.
Your checkpoint
A testing checklist with recorded sample readings for insulation resistance, earth resistance and continuity, plus pass/fail judgments.
Indian Electricity Rules, Codes and Standards & Protection, Earthing and Safety Practices
Summarise the key Indian Electricity Rules provisions on earthing, clearance, inspection and licensed work relevant to panel installation.
State the purpose and scope of IS/IEC standards commonly cited for switchgear, conductors and protection devices.
Identify safety practices for isolation, lockout-tagout, PPE and first aid for electric shock in panel work.
Apply rule-based checks to a sample installation scenario and list compliance gaps.
Your checkpoint
A one-page compliance checklist mapping ten installation points to the applicable rule or standard, with a sample scenario audit.
Estimation, Costing and Maintenance of Panels & Employability Skills and Workplace Communication
Prepare a material take-off and cost estimate for a small control panel, including wastage and labour allowance.
Build a preventive maintenance schedule for contactors, relays, busbars and terminal connections.
Write clear workplace messages: a fault report, a handover note and a short client explanation of a repair.
Use basic employability skills - teamwork, time management and interview-ready self-presentation - in a mock scenario.
Your checkpoint
A panel estimate sheet with itemised costs and a preventive maintenance calendar for one quarter.
Electrical Fundamentals and Circuit Theory & Motor Control Circuits and Starting Methods & Protection, Earthing and Safety Practices
Revise weak areas flagged in earlier self-tests and re-solve missed problems without notes.
Complete two timed full-syllabus mock tests and score each domain separately.
Redraw the DOL, forward-reverse and star-delta circuits from memory within a time limit.
Consolidate a final one-page formula and rule summary for last-minute revision.
Your checkpoint
Two completed mock tests with a domain-wise score sheet and a written revision plan for any domain below 60 percent.
Milestones
Week 2: Solve 15 mixed circuit and motor-current numericals at 80 percent accuracy in 45 minutes without notes.
Week 4: Draw the DOL and star-delta control circuits from memory, correctly labelling every component and interlock, and produce an accurate wire list.
Week 6: Score at least 70 percent on a self-made 40-question test covering wiring, protection, earthing and rules.
Week 8: Score at least 65 percent overall on both timed mock tests with no domain below 50 percent.
