ACTIVITY 1: OHMETER READING RESISTOR COLOR CODING

OBJECTIVES:

1. To determine the stated value at a resistor by interpreting the colour code

indicated on the resistor.
2. To understand better the calculation of the resistor.

PROCEDURE:

1. Take a resistor from the sample tray provided.

2. Record its COLOR CODE in column 1 of the table.
3. Determine, using a color coding chart, its Coded Resistance, in units of the
ohms (the symbol for which is ohm). Write this coded resistance in column 2.
4. Determine, Using the color code chart, The Tolerance (in percent) of the
resistor, and this tolerance in column 3.
5. Using the Coded Resistance and Tolerance, find the Maximum Coded
Resistance, and record this value in column 4.
6. Using the Coded Resistance and the Tolerance, find the Maximum Coded
Resistance, and record this value in column 5.

MATERIALS:
1. Resistor (20 assorted color-coded resistors. Provided in a tray
2. Meter (Agilent 34401A Digital Multimeter which can be used to measure
Voltage(unit of volts, abbreviation is V).
Current(unit of amps, milliamps, microamps abbreviation are A,mA)
Resistance( unit of ohms, kilo-ohms, megaohms, abbreviation are Ω,kΩ,
MΩ)
ACTIVITY 2: SPLICES AND JOINTS

OBJECTIVES:

1. To have knowledge and experience on how to Jointing and Splicing a Electrical

Wire Gauge.
2. To know the importance on why do we have to Splice an electrical wire gauge.

PROCEDURE

1. Using the proper size of the connector for the particular cable
2. Proper tools
3. Clean cuts and stripping
4. Restoring the insulation, armor and outersheath
5. Proper technique

MATERIAL

1. Electrical Wire Gauge

2. Long nose pliers
3. Side cutter pliers
4. Diagonal pliers
ACTIVITY 3: PVC BENDING

OBJECTIVES:

To be able to avoid what kind of obstacles or which direction you intend to take the
pipe

PROCEDURE:

1. Prepare the materials and tools to my work place.

2. Get the size of the PVC pipe
3. I cut the PVC according to what size I needed
4. I get the heat gun to bend it according to what kind of bend what I needed.
5. I place it to my circuit.

MATERIALS:
1. PVC pipe
2. Cutter
3. Meter scale
4. Heat gun
ACTIVITY 4: TWO LAMPS CONTROLLED BY ONE SPST SWITCH

OBJECTIVES:

To control two lamp (in parallel) with one switch

PROCEDURE:
1. Draw the circuit diagram and get them approved by staffed in charged.
2. Prepare the list of tools and material required for the work and collect them.
3. Cut the connecting wires into suitable length and make the connection according
to the circuit diagram.
4. In parallel circuit voltage remains the same across the two bulbs (resistances) but
current varies. Overall resistance in parallel circuit in smaller than the individual
resistance in the circuit
5. Positive terminal of the battery is connected with the switch and one wire is
connected with the second point of switch and with the bulb. Two bulbs are
connected in parallel as show in figure. The negative terminal is then connected
with the other point of the 2nd bulb to make a complete circuit.
6. The circuit is then check by providing the AC Supply to the circuit and shown to
the supervisor

1. Bulbs
2. Switch
3. Wire
4. PVC conduit pipe
5. Receptacle
6. Junction box
7. Utility box
ACTIVITY 5:
TWO LAMPS CONTROLLED BY TWO SPST SWITCHES IN ONE LOCATION

OBJECTIVES:

To control two lamp (in parallel) with two switches.

PROCEDURE:
Prepare the materials needed, measure the wire and have exact size of the PVC
and I start to work. First, I place the PVC , Junction Box, Utility box to the wiring board
then I start working to connect the wires and I check it with Ohmmeter to be sure of my
work then when I am sure about my connection I light it up.

MATERIALS:
1. Utility box
2. Junction box
3. Wire
4. PVC Pipe
5. Switch
6. Receptacle
7. Bulbs
