The LEW Course is an essential training pathway for individuals who want to advance their electrical career in Singapore. With strict regulations set by the Energy Market Authority (EMA), anyone aiming to become a licensed electrical worker must understand electrical safety, statutory requirements, and proper installation practices. The LEW Course bridges this gap by providing structured learning that aligns with EMA’s competency expectations. A comprehensive LEW Course introduces participants to electrical fundamentals, protection systems, and key regulatory frameworks.

As a practicing licensed electrical worker and director of RES Engineering Services, I’ve mentored dozens of professionals preparing for their LEW path. The LEW Course is not just another certification. It is a responsibility, a career accelerator, and in many ways, a stepping stone toward becoming someone capable of safeguarding electrical installations across Singapore.

In this blog, I want to break down the LEW Course in a practical, easy-to-understand manner—sharing insights from both my personal journey and the real challenges many applicants face.
