GUIDELINES IN MAKING ELECTRICAL LAYOUT

1. The code requires sufficient circuitry to supply residential load of 30

watts per square meter.
2. The requirement 30 watts per square meter is up to 80 square meters
for 20 amp circuit (2400 watts) or 60 square meters for 15 amp circuit
(1800watts).
3. The code requires a minimum of 20 amperes for appliance branch to
feed all small appliances outlet in the kitchen, dining and living room.
4. The general purpose branch shall be rated 20 amperes. Wire no. 12
AWG is the minimum size of conductor required for all the convenience
outlets.
5. The circuit load of 15 ampere circuit shall be used for light circuit.
6. Plug outlet or convenience receptacles shall be counted in computing
the load if its not in the load of general lighting circuit.
For 15 amp circuit: 9/1.5= 6 outlets
For 20 amp circuit 12/1.5= 8 outlets
7. Convenience outlet should be planned properly. It should not be placed
in one circuit so that the failure of one will not deprive the supply of
power.
8. All kitchen outlets should be fed from any of the circuits except lighting
circuit.
9. Certain outlet in the room should be designed as appliances outlet.
All kitchen receptacles
Dining room receptacles
One in the living room
10. The code requires that at least one 20 amp circuit is supplied to the
laundry outlets.
11. Provide a separate circuit for air conditioning units.

BASIC DRAWING

Alphabet of Lines
Each line in a technical drawing has a definite meaning and is drawn in vari-
ous ways.

Visible lines are lines which are seen on the edge of an object. When
drawn using the ink, the lines are heavy and solid; when pencil is used, the
line produced is medium. The thickness of the lines depends on the size of the
drawing.

Long break lines are lines which show that a line has been broken.
These lines have definite breaks and are medium in weight.

Short break lines are lines drawn with a heavy freehand line.

Hidden lines are also called dotted line. They are short medium weight
dashes measuring about 3-4 millimeter wide. These kind of lines are used to
represent hidden view of an object.

A leader line is a fine broken line. It has an arrow head at one end. The
broken line has a short horizontal and an inclined line to indicate either a part
or measurement of an object.

D What is in?

Reference line is a curve line with an arrow at one end. This kind of line
is used to label the parts of an object.

Centre lines are lines used to pinpoint center of objects, arcs and circle.
They are drawn using one long and one short dash alternately.

Section lines are lines used to show sectional view. The spaces are
placed evenly so that a shaded effect may be achieved.

Dimension lines show the measurement of an object. It consists of arrow-

heads, fine line and the measurement. The arrow heads are short and placed
at both end of the line. The measurement is placed at the middle of the fine
line.

Types of Drawing

Orthographic working drawing shows the front, the top and the right
side views of an object. In orthographic drawing, lines are true size. Hidden
lines are dotted. Center line indicates circle and cylinder.

Isometric Pictorial Drawing shows the 3 dimensional views of the ob-

ject. The height of the object is shown in vertical lines. The length and the
width are the isometric axes that were drawn at 30° angle line which is
the true size. Circle that appears as eclipses isometric drawings usually
has center line. Hidden lines are not shown.

ELECTRICAL LAYOUT

Electrical Plan is a technical representation of electrical system pro-

posed to be installed in building or house, which includes material, devices
and equipment.

D What is in?

Parts of an Electrical Plan

The Floor Plan shows the layout of the location of light, switches, conven-
ience outlets, and the power outlets.

The following details can be seen in the floor plan:

1. Location, type and rating of lighting fixture
2. Location, type of power outlet and their rating
3. Outlet that belongs to that branch
4. Location, type of control system used.

The Load Schedule

The following details can be seen in the schedule of load:

• Number of branch circuit of electrical wiring system

• Number of light outlet, power outlet and switches per branch
• Total wattage rating and of the load per circuit branch
• Total current load per circuit and size of wire used
• Computation of the total wattage and current of each circuit branch.

Free Hand Sketching

Free hand sketching is the fast and convenient way to draft an idea on
paper. Supposing that an electrician wants to determine the number of a
conductors passing in a conduct, he must draft a free hand sketch of what
the connection will be and the number of wires that will be utilized. A sketch
has its purposes:

Sample Isometric Free Hand Sketch

• Presents an idea and reduces to chances for an error

• Provides communications between the drafter, engineer and the technician
• Decision can be made as to how good or poor the idea is
• Determines what idea should be developed or be changed.

Free hand sketch helps to:

• develop new product
• organize ideas
• formulate ideas
• record ideas
• change design
• lay out drawing
• find graphic solution to many problems in design
• save time and expenses of making good design
