The growing need for skilled personnel within the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) has highlighted the importance of developing innovative and resource-efficient training tools. This project aimed to design and construct a prototype electric load simulator using recycled materials to address the demand for supplementary training methods. The methodology included selecting and integrating reused components, followed by rigorous testing to validate the simulator's functionality under laboratory conditions. The project's scope extended to the practical application of the simulator in a training session, which demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing staff understanding of electrical load systems. The results indicate that this approach can significantly contribute to optimizing training programs within the CFE.
