Abstract

Every wireman or electrician should establish a safe and effective electrical infrastructure that complies with safety regulations and serves the electrical requirements of building occupants. Many wiremen can perform the electrical installation but still lack the skill to troubleshoot when a fault occurs. This study can be one of the efforts to resolve the problem by developing a trainer to troubleshoot the electrical installation fault. Electrical faults can be taught theoretically but to master the skills to perform troubleshooting to identify the location and the root cause of the faults, it requires a good understanding of electrical circuits and some hands-on experience. This troubleshooting trainer emulates the fault by using Arduino as a controller. The Arduino will trigger the relays in the circuit and protection devices such as MCB and RCCB will trip according to the fault that occurs in the circuit. Then, troubleshooting must be done to identify the fault location while following the right safety guidelines in troubleshooting.
