Introduction
The college of science engineering gives a chance to their students to spend 8 weeks in industrial companies. This training gives the student the opportunity to see what they have studied and how to deal with the practical live. My training program was in the period from Saturday,3 July 2010 to Wednesday , 25 August 2008 at Flour Arabia Limited (FAL) in AL-Khober.
Fluor Arabia Limited (FAL)
Fluor Corporation is one of the world’s largest publicly owned engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance services companies. Clients rely on Fluor to deliver world-class solutions that optimize their assets, improve their competitive position and increase their long-term success.
Electrical Orientation
Electrical today is involved in every stage of a project from initiation to completion. It deals with engineering, design, selection and application of power systems, equipment, control and protection for the electrical distribution network. It involves the understanding of principles for power generation, distribution, control and protection.
Electrical Design
Electrical Design is responsible for the following project activities:
Prepare standard installation details.
Prepare wiring diagrams.
Prepare cable schedules.
Prepare schematic diagrams.
Prepare 3D model.
Lighting System
Before talking about designing lighting systems, let us go through the types of lighting and their applications and specifications.
Automation
Software programs are very important tools in Electrical field since they give accurate results causing less time and less cost.
There are many programs but during summer training, I learnt three designing programs used for electrical design such as MicroStaion, PDS-Electrical raceway and Luxicon.
Conclusion
Working with Fluor Arabia Limited (FAL) as a summer training was a very nice experience. I learnt a lot about designing basic systems in electrical and how the importance of electrical power tools, hardware and software, in any project. I also practiced what I learnt in the university and applied it on field.
