Materials that allow many electrons to move freely are called Conductors.
Materials that allow few free electrons to move are called Insulators.
3. Current and electron flow in the opposite direction.
Current flows from positive to negative and electron flows from negative to positive.

5. Current (I): Electrons
move through a
conductor when electric
current flows.

required to make current
flow through a conductor is
called voltage.
Resistance (R):

9. Big Problem of Electricity !!
• Gas – can be stored in cylinder
• Diesel/Petrol – can be stored in a tank
• Coal – can be stored
• Electricity – can’t be stored except for small
demand in the battery storage.
17. Electricity pricing
• There are different price structures for electricity users
• Two Part Tariff: Demand (kVA)and Consumption (kWh)
• Time of the Day (TOD) meters for effective utilization of the energy – by NEA

30. Group Work: PROBLEM 1
A desktop computer uses a 150 Watt power when it is plugged in. NEA
Electricity costs NRs 8/kWh. Calculate how much it would cost to
operate 10 computers for 1 year for 7 hours per day.
Given:
Power = 150 W * 10 (converted to kW = 10 x150W/1000 = 1.50 kW)
Time = 7 hours per day for 300 days = 2,100 hours
Cost of electricity = NRs 8/kWh
Annual cost to operate laptop = power used x time x cost of
electricity
Hence, cost to operate = 1.50 * 2,100 * 8 = NRs 25,200
It would cost NRs 25,000 to operate 10 computers for 7 hours per day
for 300 days.
31. Group Work: PROBLEM 2
A Lap computer uses a 50 Watt power when it is plugged in. NEA
Electricity costs NRs 8/kWh. Calculate how much it would cost to
operate 10 Laptops for 1 year for 7 hours per day.
Given:
Power = 50 W * 10 (converted to kW = 10 x50W/1000 = 0.50 kW)
Time = 7 hours per day for 300 days = 2,100 hours
Cost of electricity = NRs 8/kWh
Annual cost to operate laptop = power used x time x cost of
electricity
Hence, cost to operate = 0.50 * 2,100 * 8 = NRs 8,400
It would cost NRs 8,400 to operate 10 Laptop computers for 7 hours
per day for 300 days.

33. Electrical Power
Power
• The rate at which work is done
Types
• True power(active power)
• Reactive power
• Apparent power
34. Electrical Power (Contd.)
•True power(active power)
It is the power that actually powers the
equipment and performs useful work.
It is the actual power used by the load.
True power
=VICOSØ
35. Power Factor
• Power factor (pf) is the ratio between true
power and apparent power.
• True power is the power consumed by an AC
circuit
• Reactive power is the power that is stored in
an AC circuit.
38. Nature of load on different
parameter
• Resistor
• Inductor
• Capacitor
39. Fundamentals of Electrical Hazards
• Introduction
An average of one worker is electrocuted on the job
every day
There are four main types of electrical injuries:
– Electrocution (death due to electrical shock)
– Electrical shock
– Burns
– Falls
40. Fundamentals of Electrical Hazards
Electrical Shock
• Received when current passes through the body
• Severity of the shock depends on:
– Path of current through the body
– Amount of current flowing through the body
– Length of time the body is in the circuit
• LOW VOLTAGE DOES NOT MEAN LOW HAZARD
41. Fundamentals of Electrical Hazards
• To flow electricity must have a complete path.
• Electricity flows through conductors
– water, metal, the human body
• Insulators are non-conductors
• The human body is a conductor.
42. Basic Rules of Electrical Action
• Electricity isn’t live until current flows
• Electrical current won’t flow until there is a
complete loop, out from and back to the
power source.
47. Why Energy Efficiency?
• Energy prices are rising and becoming
increasingly Unstable
• Energy brings prosperity and gives us a
comfortable life
• In developed countries energy is needed to
improve the quality of life and reduce
costs, whereas for us it is a matter of survival
• Use of energy also has disadvantages like;
environmental pollution, climate change
48. Why Energy Efficiency?
• It is difficult for existing energy resources to meet
the increasing energy demand
• New constructions for generation of power are
cost intensive
• What can be done then?
• We must reduce the energy demand, by using
energy as efficiently as possible
• We must use fossil fuels in the cleanest possible
way
49. Measures Carried Out In Electrical System

Till now no proven reserves of petroleum suitable for commercial exploitation have been found in Nepal. The big share of 87.2% is by the traditional form of energy and only 12% share of commercial energy. Similarly, A small share of 0.7% is achieved from the renewable energy, nevertheless, it is in good progress situation since last decadeMore than 300,000 households are electrified by solar home systems (SHS) and micro hydro-power and around 200,000 households are using biogas for cooking and lightning in Nepal.
Petroleum products have yet again topped the import list for Nepal in the FY 2012-13. With a total import figure of NPR 549.6 billion (USD 5.8 billion), the country imported NPR 100.6 billion (USD 1.1 billion) worth of petroleum products comprising of 18% of the total imports. The import of petroleumproducts has increased at a rate of 15.9% since last year.
- In this picture you can see the protest march against the load shedding announcement of the government in 2008. The protest was done ELECTRIC THREE WHEELER Public vehicle operators. Due to 16 hours load shedding, they were not able to charge batteries to run their vehicles.
