REGISTRATION
Requirement to be Registered in Electrical Engineering
Electrical engineering may or may not include electronic engineering. Electrical engineering is considered to deal with the problems associated with large-scale electrical systems such as power transmission and motor control, whereas electronic engineering deals with the study of small-scale electronic systems including computers and integrated circuits. Alternatively, electrical engineers are usually concerned with using electricity to transmit energy, while electronic engineers are concerned with using electricity to transmit information.
In the context of BEM's classification, Electrical Engineering is Power Engineering, (also called Power Systems engineering), which is a branch of engineering that deals with the generation, transmission and distribution of electric power as well as the electrical devices connected to such systems including generators, motors and transformers. Although much of the field is concerned with the problems of three-phase AC power - the standard for large-scale power transmission and distribution across the modern world - a significant fraction of the field is concerned with the conversion between AC and DC power as well as the development of specialised power systems such as those used in aircraft or for electric railway networks.
Based on the above, a graduate who wants to be registered in the electrical engineering branch must have undergone the following core electrical subjects in his course:
