Electrical plan is “a preplan of

electrical design on a paper before the

physical installation of electrical
appliances and machines in real time”.
A technical representation of electrical
system proposed to be installed in
building or house, which includes
material, devices and equipment.
  FLOOR PLAN
A floor plan is a type of drawing that shows
you the layout of a home or property from
above.

Floor plans typically illustrate the location of

walls, windows, doors, and stairs, as well as
fixed installations such as bathroom fixtures,
kitchen cabinetry, and appliances.
The following details can be seen in
the floor plan:

1. Location, type and rating of lighting fixture

2. Location, type of power outlet and their
rating
3. Outlet that belongs to that branch
4. Location, type of control system used.

 GUIDELINES IN MAKING ELECTRICAL LAYOUT

1. The code requires sufficient circuitry to supply residential

load of 30 watts per square meter.

2. The requirement 30 watts per square meter is up to 80 square

meters for 20 amp circuit (2400 watts) or 60 square meters for 15
amp circuit (1800watts).

3. The code requires a minimum of 20 amperes for appliance

branch to feed all small appliances outlet in the kitchen, dining
and living room.

4. The general purpose branch shall be rated 20 amperes. Wire

no. 12 AWG is the minimum size of conductor required for all the
convenience outlets.
5. The circuit load of 15 ampere circuit shall be used for light
circuit.
6. Plug outlet or convenience receptacles shall be counted in
computing the load if it’s not in the load of general lighting
circuit.
For 15 amp circuit: 9/1.5= 6 outlets
For 20 amp circuit 12/1.5= 8 outlets

7. Convenience outlet should be planned properly. It should not

be placed in one circuit so that the failure of one will not deprive
the supply of power.

8. All kitchen outlets should be fed from any of the circuits except
lighting circuit.
9. Certain outlet in the room should be designed as
appliances outlet.

• All kitchen receptacles

• Dining room receptacles
• One in the living room

10. The code requires that at least one 20 amp

circuit is supplied to the laundry outlets.
11. Provide a separate circuit for air conditioning
units.
