Acknowledgement.


Alhamdulillah, everything is going smoothly. Thanks to Allah SWT, for giving me the opportunity to complete this Final Year Project which is title Practice of DSM for Commercial Buildings (Female Hostel UniKL BMI). This final year project report was prepared for Universiti Kuala Lumpur British Malaysian Institute for student in final year to complete the undergraduate program that leads to the degree of Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Hons) in Electrical.
Firstly, I would like to express my deepest thanks to Miss Norhafiza Bt Mohamad, a lecturer at Universiti Kuala Lumpur British Malaysian Institute and also assign as my supervisor who had guided in a lot of task during two semesters session 2013/2014. I also want to thanks the lecturers and staffs of Electrical Section and Student Services Department UniKL BMI for their cooperation during I complete the final year project that had given valuable information, suggestions and guidance in the completion and preparation this final year project report. 

Finally, thank to my dear family that supports  in various field such as fund, idea and moral in completing this project. 

P/s: Yeay !

Salam,

For this week, the hardware that I will bring on FYP presentation should be done before Friday (16 June). FYP poster is printed after checking by Miss Norhafiza.

FYP Poster
I should drill the hole for screw and cable for 3pin plug. Mr. Azman (Technician at Level 1) lend me a drill point.

Cable 3 pin plus

Done !

There are two holder lamps. The first one is for LED tube light and the second one is for fluorescent tube light with 3 pin plug.


P/s: Thank you.

Salam,

For this week, costing will be calculated. The costing is includes:

  • material cost (i.e: LED tube light, fluorescent tube light)
  • power cost every year
  • total lamp faulty
  • total lamp from level 1 - level 4
LED Tube Light

Material Cost

The price for 1 pcs LED tube light is RM40. The LED tube light as shown below:


LED tube light Type 1
On FYP 1, the price is RM 60. But it is different type of LED tube light. The type as shown below:

LED tube light Type 2
 However, LED tube light Type 1 is more suitable to the areas at female hostel UniKL BMI. The certain areas are corridor, wash room, dry room, and toilet. Therefore, the material cost is RM40 per tube light.

Power Cost 

Regarding to power cost at day 14, the total power cost is RM 1.710983. Therefore, the power cost per day is RM 0.122213071 per day.

Power cost per month:

RM 0.122213071 x 30 = RM 3.66639213

Power cost per year:

RM 3.66639213 x 12 = RM 43.99670556

Therefore, this is the total power cost per year for 1 pcs LED tube light.

Total Lamp Faulty

Average for per year for lamps faulty is 83 pcs tube light.

Therefore, the cost for lamps faulty is:

83 x RM 40 = RM 3 320

Total Lamp from Level 1 - Level 4

Total lamp for every level
The total lamp for every level is 42. Therefore, the total lamp from level 1 until level 4 is:

42 x 4 = 168 pcs tube light

For the first year, LED tube light should take the 168 pcs tube light costing. This is due to change the fluorescent tube light to LED tube light.Therefore, the costing is:

168 x RM 40 = RM 6 720

Total Cost

For the first year, 168 pcs tube light costing should be includes in material cost. Therefore, calculation for material as shown below:

RM 6 730 + RM 3 320 = RM 10 040

Power cost for 168 tube light per year:

168 x RM 43.99670556 = RM 7 391.446534

The total cost for first year is:

RM 10 040 + RM 7 391.446534 = RM 17 431.44653

The total cost for second year is:

RM 17 431.44653 - RM 6 720 = RM 10 711.44653

For the second year, 168 pcs tube light costing is not include. Similar to third, fourth and fifth year.

Fluorescent Tube Light

Material Cost

The material cost for fluorescent is RM5 per tube light.


OSRAM Brand

Power Cost


Regarding to power cost at day 14, the total power cost is RM 4.9013876. Therefore, power cost per day is RM 0.350099114 per day.

Power cost per month:

RM 0.350099114 x 30 = RM 10.50297343

Power cost per year:

RM 10.50297343 x 12 = RM 126.0356811

Therefore, this is total power cost per year for 1 pcs fluorescent tube light.

Total Lamp Faulty

Average for per year for lamps faulty is 83 pcs tube light.

Therefore, the cost for lamps faulty is:

83 x RM 5 = RM 415

However, regarding to Encik Wan Remeli, everytime maintenance repair the lamps, the starter also will be change. Therefore, the lamp faulty costing should be add with starter costing. Starter costing is:

83 x RM 1.5 = 124.5

Total costing for lamp faulty is:

RM 415 + RM 124.5 = RM 539.5


Total Cost

Power cost for 168 pcs fluorescent tube light per year is:

RM 126.0356811 x 168 = RM 21 173.99442

Total cost for lamp faulty is RM 539.5 per year.

Total cost for fluorescent tube light per year is:

RM 21 173.99442 + RM 539.5 = RM 21 173.49442

Therefore, this is the total cost per year by using fluorescent tube light.

Comparison

Expenditure
Table above shows the comparison expenditure for fluorescent and LED tube light for 5 years. By using a LED tube light, BMI is able to save RM 11 020. 04789 per year. Only for the first year, BMI should invest more to material cost to replace the fluorescent tube light to LED tube light. 

Even it is a small amount, but it still able to reduce electricity bill on BMI. 



P/s: Presentation is coming soon.

The table and graph above shows the total for every month by year. As the conclusion to be conclude, the lamps faulty report is increase when student start a new semester.


Total for 5 years

Calculation for average lamps per year

Therefore, the average lamps faulty for every year is 83 tube light. The data will be includes in costing calculation.

Salam,

For this week, LED tube light data will be collected. The duration is also 14 days. However, I'm start collect the data on 16 June at 4p.m.

Electricity Consumption

Electricity Consumption

Power Cost

The picture above shows the electricity consumption (EC)  and power cost (PC) for LED at day 4. The EC is 1.5758kWh and PC is RM 0.49. This is due to the decimal places for mini ammeter is only two. Actually, 1.5758kWh x 0.31 = RM 0.488498.

The data will be plus with the discrepancy calculation similar with fluorescent tube light. The data will be tabulated.


P/s: LED electricity consumption is 50% less than fluorescent tube light.

For this week, the data for fluorescent tube light has been tabulated. And the result will be compare with TNB tariif.


Power Cost from Mini Ammeter

Discrepancy power cost for each day

To calculate the discrepancy power cost for each day, the formula as shown below:

Discrepancy power cost formula 
To calculate the total data power cost for each day, the formula as shown below:

Total data power cost
To calculate the power cost by using TNB tariff, the formula as shown below:

Power cost TNB Tariff

After that, the all data will be tabulated in one table.

Table for fluorescent
The graph for TNB tariff power cost and total data power cost as shown below:

Graph for fluorescent 

Graph for percentage of comparison
The percentage is less than 1%, therefore the data from mini ammeter is reliable to use.


P/s: LED data will be collected.
