TEST-III Enumeration:
III- A.
1. Electrical service cords should be in good condition.
2. Remove from service any equipment with frayed cords or exposed
wires.
3. All electrical equipment must be grounded, use 3- pronged plugs.
4. Use a single plug for each electrical connection.
5. Multiple plugs for additional connections should be avoided.
6. Do not overload circuits.
 7. Water can turn anything into an electrical conductor-don’t stand in
water or have water on your hands when using electrical
equipment.
8. In case of an electrical fire, don’t douse the burning object with
water. Turn off power if possible. If it’s small, extinguish it with fire
extinguisher.
9. Never use temporary wiring.
10 .Cords crossing vehicular or personnel passageways should be
protected, sign posted, and used temporarily or in an emergency.
III- B.
1. Purchase or rent a manual pipe threaded machine from an equipment
retailer.
2. Inspect the pipe threaded before beginning and replace dies or any
parts that show signs of wear.
3. Mount your pipe firmly in the pipe vise by placing it in the vise and
then tightening until it is held tightly.
4. Cut the end of the pipe cleanly and squarely by using a pipe cutter.
5. Ream the cut end of the pipe to remove any burrs from the cut using a
reamer, which is a cylinder-shaped rotary cutting tool that you run
smoothly across the freshly cut edges of the pipe to remove rough
edges
6. Select your die head according to the size and type of pipe you are
threading and the thread form you require.
7. Place the die head over the pipe on the threaded
8. Press steadily on the front of the die head, while simultaneously
pushing the handle down to start the threaded.
9. Use your weight as leverage to apply pressure on the handle, while
holding it firmly.
10. Apply threading oil generously while threading
11. Cease threading when the end of the threading die is flat against the
end of the pipe.
12. Reverse the ratchet mechanism and turn the die head in the
opposite direction
13. Stand the pipe on end and gently tap it to remove any particles that
may be lodged within
14. Clean the pipe with a cloth, removing any oil
15. Seal the threading with Teflon tape or a pipe thread compound when
attaching the pipe to the connector
16. Clean the pipe threaded machine thoroughly after use so the
oils and metal pieces do not damage the machine, which could cause
sub-standard threading during your next project.
