General knowledge in electrical engineering and physics at the level of second year of study and basic knowledge of material properties, power electronics and electrical machines and apparatus is expected.

There are evaluated of laboratory exercises, individual project and final exam according to the rules of FEEC. Laboratory training is rated at maximum of 32 points on the basis of submitted records, whereas 14 points is the minimum for admission to final exam. The individual project is classified by 10 points maximally if included.  The assessment includes a test verifying the acquired knowledge from laboratory and numerical exercises, with a maximum of 8 points and a minimum of 4 points for credit. The final exam is composed of written and oral part, where 60 point can be acquired at maximum and successful pass is conditional on obtaining 30 points at minimum.
Overall classification of the course is in compliance with the FEEC rules. Requirements for completion of the course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible of the course and are updated for every year.
The final exam is aimed at understanding in the field of principles and ways of electricity consumption, design of electrical appliances, consumption characteristics and applications mainly in electro heat and illumination engineering. 

The content and forms of course units are specified by a regulation issued by the responsible lecturer and are updated for every academic year. In general, the presence at class is optional except laboratory training, which is mandatory. Missed laboratory training can be accomplished within semester in an alternative date in justified cases, whereas regular letter of apology and agreement with the teacher is required.

The aim of the course is to apprise students of energy consumption and use with applications in the fields of consumer electronics, electro heating and lighting engineering, electric drives, in the frame of necessity for electrical power engineering.
Student is able to:
- describe individual load types from point of view of consumption characteristics and input power components,
- present basic topologies of power supply units and describe their behaviour,
- explain principles of the light generation, and derive basic spectro-radiometric and photometric variables.
- describe design and operation of the light sources dedicated for general illumination (incandescent, luminescent – discharge and LED lamps), including all ballasts/converters providing feeding in all operation states,
- evaluate light-technical and electrical parameters and properties of the light sources and consider their application,
- describe functionalities of luminaries, their properties and parameters used for sorting procedure related to applications,
- discuss approach of lighting systems design, apply individual procedures of design, including validation technique,
- specify basic types of electro-heating and discuss their applicability in industrial processes,
- explain principles, properties, devices, performance and utilization of direct and indirect resistance heating, arc heating, and induction and microwave heating,
- describe AC and DC traction system, including individual subsystems and their operation with a view to power consumption.
