Takeaways

• 😀 The script discusses the basics of electrical installations in multi-story buildings, focusing on a simplified approach using a single line diagram.
• 😀 The main components of the electrical distribution system include medium voltage (MV), low voltage (LV), transformers, and backup systems like generators and control panels.
• 😀 The power flow begins from the PLN (state electricity company) and is distributed via substations and transformers, which convert high voltage (20kV) to low voltage (380V-400V).
• 😀 Transformers used in the building include dry and wet transformers, which distribute power through cables, with a neutral line generated by the transformer.
• 😀 The script explains the role of a medium voltage distribution board (MV MDB), which manages the incoming power and distributes it to various systems.
• 😀 The importance of capacitors is highlighted, particularly their role in improving power factors below 0.85 to optimize electrical efficiency.
• 😀 The distribution of power is done through multiple sub-panels that supply electricity to different sections of the building, including the basement, floors, and rooftop.
• 😀 Each floor or section has dedicated electrical panels for lighting, outlets, and air conditioning, with the rooftop typically housing outdoor AC units.
• 😀 In case of a power outage or blackout, a generator set automatically activates to supply power, ensuring minimal disruption to the building's systems.
• 😀 The use of different types of cables (e.g., BBC cables) is discussed, with specific focus on their size and application in distributing electrical power safely and efficiently.
• 😀 The script concludes with a practical application for electrical engineers, emphasizing the use of the diagram for interviews or tests related to electrical installations.

Q & A

What is the main topic discussed in the video?

The main topic discussed in the video is the electrical installation process in multi-story buildings, specifically focusing on how electricity flows through different panels and components.

What is a Single Line Diagram (SLD), and how is it used in the context of this video?

A Single Line Diagram (SLD) is a simplified representation of the electrical system, showing the main components and how they are connected. In this video, it is used to explain the flow of electricity from the power source to various distribution panels in the building.

What are the key components in a building's electrical system, as explained in the video?

The key components include the Medium Voltage (MV) distribution board (MDB), transformers (both wet and dry types), Low Voltage (LV) distribution board, generators, capacitor banks, and various distribution panels for each floor.

What is the function of the transformer in the electrical distribution system?

The transformer steps down the voltage from 20kV to 380V-400V, making it suitable for use within the building. It plays a crucial role in reducing high voltage to a safe level for general electrical use.

What does a capacitor bank do in the system?

The capacitor bank improves the power factor of the system, which is particularly useful when the power factor is below 0.85. It helps in stabilizing voltage and improving overall system efficiency.

What is the role of the genset (generator set) during a power outage?

During a power outage, the genset automatically kicks in when it detects the loss of voltage from the PLN (state grid). It ensures the building's electrical system continues functioning until power is restored.

How does electricity flow from the PLN to the building's electrical system?

Electricity from the PLN enters the building through a substation (gardu PLN) and is then distributed through the MV line. It is transformed to a lower voltage by the transformer and sent to the LV panel for further distribution to different areas of the building.

What are the typical applications of electricity on each floor as described in the video?

Electricity is distributed to different floors for lighting, power outlets, air conditioning, and other needs. For instance, the rooftop may have outdoor AC units or lighting panels, while each floor's panel supplies power for lights, plugs, and other equipment.

What happens during a blackout in the system?

In the event of a blackout or power failure, the generator set (genset) automatically starts up, and the electricity from the genset is routed through the LV panel, ensuring continuity of power supply.

What types of cables are used in the electrical distribution system, and what is their purpose?

The cables used are BBC type cables (such as 50mm BC cables), which are responsible for carrying electricity from the LV panel to different distribution points, ensuring safe and efficient power transmission throughout the building.
