When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

This course delivers comprehensive technical knowledge on power factor correction, power quality, and electrical distribution system design. It starts with the fundamentals of power factor, examining both operational and cost-related impacts, and progresses to correction methods ranging from conventional capacitor banks to advanced solutions such as SHiC, APFC, and HFPC systems. The module also explores harmonics and their effects on system reliability and equipment lifespan, along with practical harmonic mitigation approaches. Learners are introduced to short-circuit theory, fault calculation techniques, and worked examples to enhance understanding of system protection. In addition, the course covers key electrical distribution components—including cables, cable trays, busducts, and trunking systems—while providing practical exposure to cable sizing, voltage drop calculations, and busduct design considerations. This course is well suited for electrical design engineers, commissioning engineers, site engineers, and professionals involved in building services, industrial power systems, and distribution network design.
