TWO CONNECTED STAGES
Design the system.
Then build the model.
Stage 1 covers electrical design engineering. Stage 2 takes the same systems into Revit Electrical, Navisworks and Autodesk Construction Cloud for coordinated BIM delivery.
STAGE 1 · AUTOCAD, LOADS & LIGHTING
From drawing setup
to load and lighting design.
- AutoCAD: drawing and modify tools, layers, annotations, dimensions, blocks, layouts, title blocks and shop drawings.
- Electrical building services: the role of the design engineer, design workflow, fundamentals and NEC / IEC standards.
- Load calculations: connected and demand load, diversity factors, load and panel schedules, load balancing.
- Voltage drop, cable sizing, fault level calculation and power factor correction.
- Lighting design: fixture selection, indoor, landscape and emergency lighting, exit signage, lux levels and DIALux evo.
- Wiring, cable and raceway design: conduit, cable tray and trunking layouts, circuit diagrams and SLDs.
WHAT YOU’LL PRACTISE
Load calculationsLoad and panel schedules
Lighting designLux levels in DIALux evo
Layouts & SLDsContainment and circuit drawings
STAGE 1 · DISTRIBUTION, PROTECTION & ELV
Distribute the power.
Protect the building.
- Distribution boards and LT panel design.
- Protective devices: MCB, MCCB, ACB, VCB, RCCB and RCBO.
- Backup power systems: ATS, AMF and UPS.
- Transformer and generator selection basics.
- Earthing systems, lightning protection, air terminals and down conductors.
- ELV integration: fire alarm, structured cabling, CCTV, access control, BMS, energy monitoring, public address and nurse call.

STAGE 2 · REVIT ELECTRICAL
Turn the design into
an intelligent model.
- Project setup and BIM fundamentals.
- Lighting system modelling and circuiting.
- Power distribution systems and equipment placement.
- Panel board configuration and panel schedules.
- Cable tray and conduit routing, wiring layouts and containment systems.
- Family creation, electrical quantity take-offs and schedules.
- Coordinated electrical documentation and shop drawings.
WHAT YOU’LL PRACTISE

STAGE 2 · NAVISWORKS & ACC
Coordinate the model
with the whole team.
- Navisworks Manage: linking architectural and structural BIM models.
- Federated coordination models and clash detection.
- Model review and issue tracking.
- Autodesk Construction Cloud: cloud collaboration and document management.
- Model coordination and review workflows.
