[1] Registered with the Professional Engineers Board of Singapore, under the field of Electrical/ Mechanical Engineering.

[2] Eg: The project is to replace 10, 50-hp, 3-phase induction motors with premium efficiency motors. Existing motors are loaded at 75%, are 92% efficient and operate 120 hours per week a year. The plant runs 50 weeks a year. The annual energy consumption of the motors is 1,824,457 kWh. A premium efficiency 3-phase induction motor has an efficiency of 95%. The annual energy consumption for 10 new motors under the same operating conditions is estimated to be 1,766,842 kWh. The project will save the facility 57,614 kWh per year. At $0.10/kWh, this equals $11522.80 in energy cost savings.
