Electrical Engineering N1-N6
Electrical Engineering N1-N6 is divided into two parts which are Electrical Engineering N1-N6 Heavy Current and Electrical Engineering N1-N6 Light Current.
The qualifications requires one to pass four subjects for every level, for example to obtain a qualification in Electrical Engineering N2 Heavy Current, you need to pass four subjects relevant to that qualification. The exams for these subjects are written every three-four months and the qualification for N1-N6 can be obtained in two years.
The following are the subjects offered under each qualification be it Heavy current or Light current:

Electrical Engineering N1-N6 Heavy Current
The following are subjects offered under electrical Engineering N1-N6 Heavy current:
The first table shows the subjects that are offered under N1-N3
Electrical Engineering N1-N3 Heavy Current
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING-HEAVY CURRENT | N1 | N2 | N3 | |
1 | MATHEMATICS | √ | √ | √ |
2 | INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS | √ | √ | √ |
3 | ENGINEERING SCIENCE (PHYSICS) | √ | √ | √ |
4 | ELECTRICAL TRADE THEORY | √ | √ | √ |
5 | ELECTRO-TECHNOLOGY | √ | ||
6 | REFRIGERATION | √ | √ | √ |
The table above shows that the compulsory subjects for Electrical Engineering Heavy Current N1-N3 are Mathematics, Engineering Science, Industrial Electronics as well as Electrical Trade Theory. In place of Electrical Trade Theory a student can also do Electro-Technology under N3. Alternatively, the student can choose to study Refrigeration Theory, if their career is related to that field in places of Industrial Electronics N1-N3.
