Please, when did you receive your invite? And is it through SMS or email? Because I wrote my test on 6th April too

me too, anyone with likely interview questions

relate ur course of study with electricity distribution, what you intend bringing to the company, why should u b employed. Pls don't jus base on d fact that u are going to b trained. Tell dem what u can offer, Dts very important. Study ur cv very well. Be able to explain ur job experience in ur cv like ur IT

transformer.

Know how to defend your CV..that's all

BEDC INTERVIEW TIPS.

1) WHAT DO U KNOW ABOUT BEDC ?

BEDC is one of the 11 distribution Companies that emerged following the privatization of the now defunct or state owned PHCN in 2013 (september 30). BEDC is responsible for retail distribution of electricity in delta,edo,ondo, and ekiti state of Nigeria. 
BEDC is a joint venture between vigeo power limited and the federal government of Nigeria represented by the bureau of public enterprise and the ministry of finance with majority being held by vigeo power limited as the core investor. 
BEDC is the 4th largest distribution Company in terms of distribution capacity with Mrs Funke Osibodu as CEO.

2) TELL US HOW THE NIGERIA POWER SYSTEM OPERATES.

The Nigeria power system consist of Generation, transmission and distribution. I could also add consumption or utilisation. 
Generation in Nigeria is usually hydro or thermal plant. Examples of hydro power plant are kainji, jebba and shiroro. 
Thermal power station are usually coal or gas fired. Examples are, Afam, Sapele, Ughelli, geregu and Egbin power plant. Coal_fired in kogi state. 
The transmission systems have voltage networks of 330kv and 132kb
The distribution networks have voltages of 33kv,11kv, 415V and 240V for single phase. Distribution company are abuja, benin, eko, enugu, ibadan, ikeja, jos, kaduna, kano, portharcourt and bornu electricity distribution Company. Nigeria bulk electricity trading company (NBET) owned by the federal government, buys power from all generation stations and sell competitively in the open market. Nigerian electricity regulatory commission (NERC) is the power sector regulator. Distribution companies buy power from generation companies which will be wheeled to them through the transmission grid.

3) WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT ATC & C LOSSES ? 

ATC losses means Aggregate Technical and Commercial (and Collection losses.
Technical losses are due to iron and copper losses in transformers, corona losses, copper losses on transmission lines, low power factor etc. They are due to the nature or design of the complex network of conductors and transmission lines between generation and distribution. 
Commercial losses also known as non technical losses are due to customers consuming power without paying- meter bypass, theft and vandalization , trees falling on transmission lines e.t.c.

Copper is a better conductor than aluminium as it has lower resistivity. Copper losses can be reduced by using conductors with large cross sectional area to reduce the resistivity with subsequent reduction in I2R losses. Also by transmitting power at a higher voltage for a given power means less current is transmitted hence less copper losses.

FOR THE ELECTRICAL GUYS (GOOGLE):
1) Difference between isolators, circuit breakers and relays.
Contactors?

2) Why is an Isolator referred to as an OFF load device while a circuit breaker is an ON load device?

3) Why is it not safe to operate an isolator ON load?

4) Function of buccholz relay in a power transformer.

thanks man
