Operational Activities of Electrical and Energy Technology

          The Electrical and Energy Technology Department has received support from Électricité de France (EDF) and Ecodime to establish a Power Station simulation laboratory and an industrial motor drive system experimental set-up for research and training purposes for students and personnel from both the public and private sectors.

         The department provides academic services in teaching and training, as well as conducting inspections and tests in electrical engineering and energy for the industry. It addresses issues related to electrical systems and motor drive systems, analyzes and resolves energy loss issues, and implements energy control and conservation measures, including energy-saving measures and energy metering. Additionally, it collaborates with Schneider Electric (Thailand) Co., Ltd. to offer training courses on the design and installation of rooftop solar power systems and building electrical installations.

          Currently, the Electrical and Energy Technology Department is certified by the Skills Development Institute 13 (Bangkok) as a testing center for national labor skills standards in the fields of electrical engineering, electronics, and computing, with certifications in building electrical installations and air conditioning systems for homes and small commercial buildings. In 2018, the department launched the Level 1 Building Electrical Installation course, offering 13 batches with 181 trainees passing and 176 participants successfully completing the exams, totaling 357 individuals.
