In carrying out household-scale electrical installations, we must not be careless, sometimes people do electrical installations that are not in accordance with the standards set by PLN. For example, in connecting electrical installations, people often just connect, namely using the type of cable that is not in accordance with the amount of electric current delivered by the cable, the use of sockets that are piled up, causing excessive heat and can melt the insulator from the socket even up to cause a fire. Therefore, the Electrical Engineering Study Program, Faculty of Engineering, Universitas PGRI Palembang wants to provide students with knowledge about electrical installations according to the standards set by the government.
Led by the Head of Electrical Engineering Study Program Emidiana, S.T., M.T with members: 1. Ir. Saleh Al Amin, MT, 2. Nita Nurdiana, ST., MT, 3. Irine Kartika P, ST, MT, 4. Abdul Aziz, ST., MT, 5.
