Estudio y propuesta de mejoramiento del sistema de fuerza en baja tensión de la Facultad de Educación Técnica para el Desarrollo de la Universidad Católica de Santiago de Guayaquil.

Abstract

In this degree work, a study of the power system is carried out, as well as a proposal for the improvement of the electrical room, located in the Faculty of Technical Education for Development. The starting point is the investigation of the current regulations that determine the requirements for the construction and installation of a transformer room. The electrical installation starts with a power diagram, since it is a graphic representation and allows showing the distribution and connections of the electrical loads within a system. Some elements that serve to protect the system from overloads or surges are also mentioned. In addition, it is necessary to determine the electrical loads associated with each component. This implies identifying the electrical cables or conductors used and how they are connected to each one, but this was not the case due to the lack of labels on all the installed components. It is for this reason that in the present work a detailed analysis of the electrical room is performed to each of its components to verify if it is complying with the regulations (NATSIM, 2012) and NEC (Ecuadorian Construction Standard, 2018), in its low voltage system that is located next to the telecommunications laboratory in the FETD through, which establishes the needs to be covered in each classroom of the FETD.
