iii.Planning

In other Organization in the world; specially those related with technical activities, planning unit plays very important roles. The planner has to make sure that every single plan they approved is according to the specification, meet the safety requirements and cost efficient which can prolong the life span of the equipment plus put a stop to undesired accident. TNB also did the same thing.

Ø The job scope of planning engineers is to:-

· Plan the construction of substation for new projects.

· Determine the suitable route for new manhole to be connected with the existing manhole.

· Prepare a 5-year Distribution Network Master Plan (DNMP) which contains load forecast in Putrajaya and Cyperjaya for the next 5 years.

· Certify materials used by electrical contractor meet the standard brand required by TNB.

· Monitor the timeline of projects to avoid time delay which is not cost effective.

Ø Before any projects can be executed,the planner will determine which suitable category it should be with.

Ø There are two types of category:-

· BKKM (borang kerja-kerja model)

· LKKK ( lembaran kerja-kerja kecil)

Ø In both projects,there are a few attachments that must be submitted to the planner in order for them to calculate:

· Maximum Demand (DM).

· Electrcitiy tariff

· Cost incurred

· Date of completion from time reviewed

Ø The attachments will prepared by the technicians are as followed:

· SJHT (Senarai Jadual Harga Tetap)

· 11 KV network diagram.

· Load analysis using PSS ADEPT.

· Cable route using GIS.

· CD (Cadangan Daerah).

The reoson that I didn’t write deeply on the planning section because all the planning forms and procedures are done by the bahasa malayu language only,so that I just wrote the general and main idea only.
