    Uploaded by

    ross bennett
    This document provides a scheme of work for a unit on the utilization of electrical energy. It outlines 5 key areas to be studied: power transformers, circuit protection systems, lighting systems, energy management and tariffs, and polyphase induction motors. The teaching and learning strategies aim to develop expert learner dispositions through principles like collaborative problem solving and effective technology use. Equality and diversity will be promoted through diverse resources and inclusive classroom practices. 18 sessions are planned to cover theoretical content and practical applications in each area through activities, assessments, and assignments.

    Scheme of Work

    2013/14
    Course/Unit Title:

    Unit 13: Utilisation of Electrical Energy

    NQF level 4: BTEC Higher Nationals H1


    AcademicYear:13/14
    Brief rationale for order of topics:

    The aim of this unit is to develop learners understanding of the underlying technology
    involved in the utilisation of electrical energy in some of the more important areas of electrical
    engineering. It also contributes to a firm foundation of knowledge for work in engineering
    design.
    Learners will be asked to use Harvard Referencing when carrying out research for Assignments. This will be introduced early in the unit and revisited if
    required.
    The dates for the operation of a polyphase induction motor Unit may be altered to co-ordinate with work done elsewhere.
    Areas studied are :

    1 Investigate the operation of power transformers


    2 Investigate circuit protection for distribution and installation systems
    3 Investigate lighting systems
    4 Investigate energy management and tariffs
    5 Investigate the operation of a polyphase induction motor.
