The Study Guide consists of carefully worked out examples of calculations. You will also be guided through all theory part of the course by answering questions similar to the ones you will find in the actual exam setting.
Our Goal |

During the study of any subject, you will be required to process a great deal of information - the Installation Rules course is no exception to this rule. Since your understanding of SANS 10142 will be tested, you will need an effective way to learn the concepts and remember them. The Installation Rules Study Package is designed to help you outline and remember important pieces of information presented with the main objective of giving you the Knowledge, Practice and Confidence necessary to pass your exams with flying colours.

The Installation Rules Study Tools consists of the Study Guide, Past Exam Papers with Memos and the Exam Simulator Software. The Study Guide is divided into three sections: The first section gives you carefully worked out examples of calculations. The second section is divided into Modules 1 to 10 where you will be guided through the theory part of the course by answering questions similar to the ones you will get in the actual exam sitting. The third section are revision exercises provided as a means to test your grasp of the concepts covered.
The Exam Simulator |

Face your final exams with an unquestionable confidence. The Exam Simulator is the ultimate preparation tool designed to give you more exercises and practice to assist in cementing your understanding of the material already covered in the course. The Exam Simulator Software does not generate exam questions haphazardly but it will systematically generate ten exam questions similar to the ones you will face in the actual exam session. Generate as many exams and set aside three hours to answer generated questions.
It is not necessary to attend extra classes as the Study Package covers all that you will ever need to pass your exams convincingly. However, you will need to register to take exams at the FET College near you. You will also need to purchase the latest SANS 10142 book from SABS.
Course Objectives |
---|
The general aim is to teach the theoretical knowledge contained in the applicable codes of practice, and the Occupational Health and Safety Act (Act 85 of 1993), and to ensure that it can be applied realistically in practice. The fundamental principles underlying these codes of practice are primarily intended to ensure the safety of persons, livestock and property against hazards that may arise during the normal operation and the proper functioning of an electrical installation. Any person attempting the examination must be able to apply the Regulations mentioned above to design, construct, inspect, verify and test electrical installations accordingly, and thereby ensuring a safe and healthy environment.

Why is it important? How is it calculated? Voltage drop is the known phenomenon where the voltage at the end of a run of a cable is lower than at the start. Any length or size of cable will have a resistance, and passing a current through this resistance will cause the voltage to drop. As the length of the cable increases, its resistance increases in proportion so is the voltage drop. The voltage drop is particularly a problem with long cable runs. All electrical conductors have resistance, and when current flows in them this results in a voltage drop, hence: the voltage measured at the load terminals will be lower than the supply voltage measured at the source or origin of the circuit ...
Why is it important? How is it calculated? Prospective Short-Circuit Current (PSCC) at any point within an electrical installation is the current that would flow in the circuit if a fault of a very low impedance occurred. The value of this fault current is determined by the supply voltage and the impedance of the path taken by the fault current. Measurement of PSCC can be used to check that protective devices within the electrical system will operate within safety limits and in accordance with the safe design of the installation. PSCC is normally measured between the phase and neutral (main switch) at the distribution board or at a socket outlet ...
Why is it important? How is it calculated? In DC installations where a back-up source of power is provided (such as a battery), all sources shall be taken into account when calculating the PSCC. The estimated PSCC at the battery terminals, as supplied by the manufacture of the battery, may be used. Obtain the estimated PSCC of the rectifiers and DC generators from the suppliers of the equipment. These type of calculations and many more are covered in the Study Package ...
