CHAPTER 2
BACKGROUND
THE PROBLEM TO BE ADDRESSED
Western Visayas College of Science and Technology is on process of

development. On February 2005 we are celebrating its 100th year as a center of
technological school in Western Visayas.
The College of Engineering in Western Visayas College of Science and
Technology, La Paz, Iloilo City was established last nine years ago. Increase
of students enrolled every year greatly affects the performance of learning in
the college of engineering. We have inadequate lightings in the classroom,
insufficient supply of power that destruct during class hour. Also the electrical
design and outlets are unorganized that keeps the students in danger all the
time. Sometime we are looking an available room to use for temporary as a
classroom to satisfy the convenience in learning of the students.
Thus the proponents are willing to make a Proposed Electrical Design for
WVCST, College of Engineering Building it includes electrical design and layout,
and electrical estimates.
PROJECT RATIONALE / JUSTIFICATION
Western Visayas College of Science and Technology, College of

Engineering, La Paz, Iloilo City is considered as one of the top performing school
in the Philippines base from the recent licensure board exam. The WVCST,
College of Engineering receives an applause where the pioneer batch of the
Electrical Engineering Department 100% percent were passed the Master
Electrician Board Exam and 88% percent of them listed in the white list as the
latest electrical engineers of the Philippines.
The proponents are willing to share an effort to proposed electrical design

it includes electrical designs and layout, and electrical estimates for the Proposed
WVCST, College of Engineering Building. The college will have a high quality
standard of electrical design. It will assure the safety of the students, faculties
and other personnel working in the building. It will comfort the students and
faculties working here. It will increase the morale of the faculty members,
employees especially the students studying here. It will increase the quality
standard of education in the College of Engineering, which can produce better
graduates. Because of modernized building facilities especially in terms of
electrical equipment and high quality standards of materials to be used.
It’s a great honor to be involved in the WVCST College of Engineering
community as a member of the Electrical Engineering Department who proposed
the Electrical Design and Estimates for WVCST, College of Engineering Building
which become a center of technical and engineering school in Western Visayas
in the following years.
CHAPTER 3
MARKETING ASPECT
ASSESSMENT OF MARKET PROSPECTS

Building will be benefited by the students, faculty members and the people of
Western Visayas College of Science and Technology La Paz Iloilo City. The
Building has no target market in terms of money because it is intended for better
education of students in WVCST, Electrical Engineering Department. But this
Building shows how effective are the students of Electrical Engineering
Department in making such electrical design and estimates.
MARKETING PLAN
For the high quality standard and modernized materials to be used in The
Building the proponents will provide a material needed for normal power
distribution system, emergency power system, lightings, lighting control, electrical
outlets, emergency cutoff switch, emergency fire alarm, communication system
and other facilities and materials needed for quality standard electrical design for
the electrical installations of the said proposed project.
On this part of marketing plan the proponents will apply their knowledge
and determination in making an electrical design necessary to have an effective
quality standard of electrical design for The Proposed Electrical Design for
WVCST, College of Engineering Building. These shows how talented and
knowledgeable are the students of WVCST, College of Engineering, Electrical
Engineering Department and through the never ending support, teaching and
guidance of its faculty members.
Making this design and estimates it will market the electrical engineering
graduates of WVCST, College of Engineering, Electrical Engineering Department
not only within the school but it makes them proud outside of the campus in the
years to come.
DEMAND ANALYSIS
Nowadays we are on the modern world, we are using high technological

equipment and materials in our lives, and the demand is so high to balance
the world we live in. Like in our Proposed Electrical Design and Estimates for
WVCST, College of Engineering Building it needs for us to demand good
quality standards of electrical design and materials to be used.
Increase of students enrolled every year greatly affects the performance of

learning in the college of engineering. We have inadequate lightings in the
classroom, insufficient supply of power that destruct during class hour. Also
the electrical design and outlets are unorganized that keeps the students in
danger all the time. Sometime we are looking an available room to use for
temporary as a classroom to satisfy the convenience in learning of the
students.
The demand for the proposed project is so high it’s hard to compete to
develop an electrical building design without following the modern design
standard.
MARKET STUDY
Base in our study and analysis we found out that the Proposed Electrical
Design and Estimates for WVCST, College of Engineering Building could not be
marketed. The special purpose of this project is intended for better education of
students in WVCST. But this Proposed Electrical Design and Estimates for
WVCST, College of Engineering Building shows how effective are the students of
Electrical Engineering Department in making such electrical design and
estimates.
Maybe someday because of good quality of the building facilities and

electrical design and materials used it can be marketed in terms of holding a
conference in multi-media room, one of the best multi-media room in the region
no other public school have this. It can also marketed in terms of considering as
a tourist attraction of the school because of a very good design of the building.

• Dimensioning switchgears and control systems
The tools are fully integrated and information is stored in a single location,
which means that information only has to be created once. Equipment is
designed to meet the electrical design goals and is registered in the engineering
database.
Electrical design is the act of conceptualizing, planning and projecting a

scheme, system and facility using the arts and science of electrical principles
along with social, economic, financial and technical consideration. The design is
made prior to the contract agreed by the by the costumer and the firm. This will
include electrical wiring design for residential commercial and industrial
establishments.
In accordance with section 31 (a) of Republic Act No. 7920, only

Professional Electrical Engineers are authorized to render design services. The
electrical design that the proponents are proposing shall be managed by persons
who are professionally capable for the job or functions.
