Design of Power Distribution for Highrise Building

About this course

This course provides a practical and structured introduction to the design of electrical power distribution systems in high-rise buildings. Starting with the overview and intent of building electrical design, learners will understand how engineering decisions are aligned with safety, reliability, and operational requirements. The course then focuses on load estimation techniques and the development of a Master Single Line Diagram (SLD)—a critical step in visualizing and planning the entire electrical network. By the end of this course, learners will be able to estimate connected loads, classify building services, and design a coherent power distribution scheme using industry-relevant practices. They will also gain the ability to interpret and create SLDs that reflect real-world system architecture. This course stands out by emphasizing applied engineering thinking through scenario-based learning and guided dialogues, rather than purely theoretical concepts. It bridges the gap between fundamentals and real-world design, enabling learners to think like practicing engineers. Completing this course will equip learners with essential skills for roles in electrical design, building services engineering, and infrastructure planning. Target learners: • Graduate engineers seeking practical knowledge in Smart Building Electrical & ELV systems. • Design consultants and project engineers working on building and infrastructure projects. • Commissioning, maintenance, and facility professionals involved in smart building technologies.
