Abstract: Electrical energy is becoming increasingly essential for educational activities in electrical engineering facilities, as these activities include the use of electrical equipment. The quantity of electrical loads in buildings escalates annually, resulting in increased demand on existing lines and the original design of building construction. Nonetheless, the positioning and allocation of the load within the panel do not align with the augmentation of the load. Consequently, the load becomes uneven across all three stages. Phase T is experiencing an overload, while Phase R has a lesser burden compared to Phases S and T. The maximum current in Phase T is 36.3 A; the imbalance is excessive, leading to a neutral current of 25.2 A. This is perilous since the present value at the neutral point ought to be zero; if the load remains unregulated, it will lead to a contact voltage in electrical apparatus. The utilization of cables is unsuitable due to the substantial connected load, while the cable diameter is merely 2.5 mm², capable of conducting a maximum current of 21 A. Therefore, it is imperative to reassess the electrical installation in the engineering building to avert short circuit disruptions.
