ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS LABORATORY (Z0608)

This laboratory has been setup mainly to teach practical aspects of electrical installation engineering. Under that, domestic and industrial electrical wiring, control circuit wiring practical are conducting. The students are being familiar with relevant circuit breakers, cable sizes and other required equipment.

There are ten test benches and there is fifty number of student capacity at once.
