Core Competency
Power Systems:
Definition: Power systems encompass the infrastructure that delivers electrical energy to various parts of a
building or facility.
Electrical Context: This includes installing components such as circuit breakers, fuses, and other devices
that manage and control the flow of electrical power.
Core 1
Lighting Systems:
Definition: Lighting systems involve the installation of fixtures, switches, and wiring to provide
illumination in different areas of the building.
Electrical Context: Setting up the wiring and connections for lighting fixtures, switches, and possibly
dimmers.
Auxiliary Systems:
Definition: Auxiliary systems are additional electrical systems that support the main power distribution and
lighting functions.
Electrical Context: This may include setting up systems such as emergency lighting, security systems, or
other specialized electrical features.
Core 1
In summary, performing roughing-in activities for
single-phase distribution, power, lighting, and
auxiliary systems involves the initial installation of
essential components, wiring, and cabling to
establish the foundational framework for the
electrical systems in a building or facility. This
work lays the groundwork for the completion of the
electrical installation during the later stages of
construction or renovation.
Core 2
Electrical Protective Devices:
Definition: Electrical protective devices are components or systems designed to detect and respond to
abnormal electrical conditions to prevent damage to equipment, reduce the risk of electrical fires, and
protect against electrical shocks.
Examples: Circuit breakers, fuses, surge protectors, ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs), and
overcurrent protection devices are common types of electrical protective devices.
Distribution Systems:
Definition: Distribution systems are responsible for the transmission of electrical power from the source
(such as a main electrical panel) to various circuits and devices throughout a building or facility.
Protective Devices: Distribution systems may include circuit breakers and fuses as protective devices to
prevent overloads and short circuits.
Core 2
Power Systems:
Definition: Power systems encompass the infrastructure that delivers electrical energy for general use and
specific applications.
Protective Devices: In power systems, protective devices such as circuit breakers and overcurrent
protection devices are installed to prevent damage to equipment and ensure the safety of the electrical
system.
Lighting Systems:
Definition: Lighting systems involve the installation of fixtures, wiring, and controls to provide
illumination in different areas.
Protective Devices: Lighting systems may be equipped with protective devices like surge protectors to
safeguard against voltage spikes that could damage lighting fixtures or other connected devices.
Core 2
Auxiliary Systems:
Definition: Auxiliary systems refer to additional electrical systems that support the main power distribution
and lighting functions.
Protective Devices: Depending on the nature of the auxiliary systems, protective devices such as circuit
breakers or specialized protective equipment may be installed to ensure their safe operation.
Grounding Systems:
Definition: Grounding systems involve connecting electrical equipment and systems to the ground to
ensure safety and provide a path for fault currents to dissipate.
Protective Devices: Grounding systems may include ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) and
grounding electrodes to prevent electrical shock hazards and improve overall system safety.
Core 2
In summary, the installation of electrical
protective devices for various systems
involves integrating safety measures into
distribution, power, lighting, auxiliary,
lightning protection, and grounding
systems to minimize the risk of electrical
hazards and ensure the reliability and
safety of the overall electrical
infrastructure.
Core 3
Wiring Devices:
Definition: Wiring devices are components that facilitate the connection of electrical wiring to electrical
equipment or appliances.
Examples: Outlets, switches, and auxiliary outlets are types of wiring devices.
Lighting Fixtures/Switches:
Lighting Fixtures Definition: Lighting fixtures are devices that house and control light sources, providing
illumination in a space.
Switches Definition: Switches are devices that control the flow of electrical power to lighting fixtures,
allowing users to turn lights on or off.
Installation: This includes mounting the lighting fixtures, connecting them to the electrical wiring, and
installing switches to control the lighting.
Auxiliary Outlets:
Definition: Auxiliary outlets refer to additional power points beyond standard wall outlets, often used for
specific equipment or appliances.
Examples: These could include outlets for specialized equipment, such as audio-visual systems or
computer workstations.
Installation: Mounting the outlet boxes, running wiring to them, and connecting the wiring to provide
power for the auxiliary devices.
