Today,we do not have any shut down project. I accompanied En. Ershadi went to Langkasuka, one of the housing project at Larkin, Johor Bahru. We went there to check whether they build the substation ( 'they' mean the contractor ) follow exactly TNB standards. Unfortunately, they don't. They simply write 'Tenaga Nasional Berhad' using funny font and the logo's is not correct. They have to re-paint the wall and draw again follows TNB standards. I forgot to take pictures of it with my phone's camera as my digital cam is left at home. forgot to bring :p

After we had lunch with the person in charge of Langkasuka's housing project, we went to TNB's store at Kota Tinggi. En. Ershadi have ordered a few tools, equipments and cables from the store. He wanted to collect it as they still have the stock. At the store, there are a lot of things. All the tools or equipments such as transformer, stay wire, fuse, feeder pillar and so on ( i can't even name it. thats alot of it ) are being kept there.


































































After a few hours at Kota Tinggi, stucked in the rain ( it was raining heavily ) we went to cable's store at Lukut. At this store, the is only cable and no other things.


































Around 5pm we arrived at the office. thats all for today :)

Today they have a shut down project again at Tanjung Kupang, Gelang Patah. For your information, Tanjung Kupang is the most end of Malaysia. if not mistaken.look for a map :) I went to the site with En. Azhar and En. Jumaat. I can only observed how they do their work and asked a few questions about H-Pole, one of the P/E or PAT (Pencawang Atas Tiang) .H-pole is used usually at the village area because they use less voltage, 240 plus 5% minus 10% ( for 1 phase) .. Other than that, i cannot see clearly cause they do the connections to transformer so high using crane, since it is PAT. I did not manage to see they jointed the cable,because as i arrived at the site, they already joint it and they wrapped the cable with transparent tape. We finished the job around 3pm..it is quite early for today :)

the transformer for PAT.
PAT- pencawang atas tiang.















































to test the transformer either it is working or not. if there is light, so the transformer is already working.





































its done!!!

After 2 weeks at planning unit, i was transferred to construction and services unit. I have to report duty to En. Mohmad bin Saikon, Jurutera Kanan Pembinaan dan Servis. But firstly, i was a little bit confuse either i have to go straight to the office at Wisma TNB or off to the yard at Kempas. But i decided to go to yard since they have morning assembly every monday and for sure En. Mohmad bin Saikon was there. But, as i arrived, En. Mohmad bin Saikon is off duty. So, i report duty to Hj. Kamim. During their assembly, i need to introduce myself infront all the staff there.. it was quite awkward since I'm the only woman there except for the cleaner lady O_o

the room for Project Unit.





All the staff there is very friendly and kind..and joker too! They asked me questions like what course i'm taking ( maybe i talked too fast just now T_T) , how many siblings, where do i live and so on..

After all the chit-chatting and breakfast (we had twice breakfast.ngee :p) i was instructed to follow En. Ershadi. They have a shut down project between P/E MEI SHUN FANG and S/S TEE YEE JIA to change the cable to other side of the road.



















the switch gear



















inside the station swicth ( S/S ) TEE YIH JIA














cable tracing set - to detect the frequency from the underground cable. As i learned in class, Malaysia used 50hz so we have to set this device with higher frequency such as 82hz.

50hz-to detect ht & lv cable without inject the signal to cable

82KHz - for live tracing ( shutdown circuit is not required)

lastly 815HZ - for dead tracing (shutdown circuit is required )

cable tracing set have two component :

transmitter : to inject frequency signal

reciever : the one look like hockey stick.

( dont have pictures for above information )

this is Cable Identification Transmitter, to identify the cable so that we don't 'spike' for wrong cable.




















En. Rahisidi do the connection between the device and the cable and they have to communicate with worker from the other side to let them know. Handphone is quite important :)



























The resistance, to let them know which one is red, blue and yellow cable since they cut off the cable.

the connections



En Rashidi and En. Azhar teached me a lot. Steps to do a shut down and show me the equipment that they use as you can see. They also show me the resistance connected to swicth gear to check the cable from the other side ( above photos )

We finished the job around 7 pm and luckily after that it is raining :)
