Learners will identify electrical requirements, construct accurate lighting layouts, calculate categorized loads, and compute total power demand for a complete office environment using AutoCAD and structured load-sheet methods.
This course provides a practical, project-based pathway to mastering electrical power demand calculation. Starting with architectural interpretation and lighting layout design, learners build a strong foundation in understanding how electrical points are placed and how these decisions influence downstream load analysis. The course then guides learners through socket load entry, special-purpose equipment planning, and multi-stage load sheet creation, culminating in a full kVA demand estimation for a commercial office space.
By completing this course, learners will gain actionable skills used daily by electrical designers, MEP engineers, and AutoCAD technicians. They will be able to confidently design lighting layouts, analyze equipment loads, and determine incoming electrical supply requirements for real-world projects.
What makes this course unique is its end-to-end case study approach, real subtitles-based accuracy, and step-by-step walkthrough of calculations exactly as performed in industry settings—ensuring learners develop both conceptual understanding and practical execution skills.
This module introduces learners to the foundational concepts of electrical power demand planning by guiding them through project setup, architectural interpretation, and the complete development of an office lighting layout. Learners explore how lighting points are derived from architectural drawings and how these decisions prepare the groundwork for accurate electrical load calculations.
This module guides learners through the systematic process of converting lighting and socket layouts into a detailed electrical load sheet and computing the total power demand for an office space. By working through multiple load sheet stages and final demand calculations, learners gain practical insight into real-world electrical planning, equipment categorization, and accurate kVA estimation.

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.
