ELECTRICAL WIRING DIAGRAM
A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of
an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes,
and the power and signal connections between the devices.There are two types of
diagram: pictorial diagram and schematic diagram.

A. Pictorial diagram is a sketch of electrical circuit that shows the external

appearance of each component. It is much like a photograph of the circuit and
uses simple images of parts.

Sample Pictorial diagram of one bulb controlled by single pole switch using 9 volt battery source.
B. Schematic diagram is a sketch showing the components of the circuit using
standard electrical symbols. It shows the actual number of components and
how the wiring is routed but not the actual location.

Sample schematic diagrams of one bulb controlled by single pole switch using direct current
Diagram A) and alternating current (Diagram B) source

C. Types of Circuit
1. Series Circuit is a circuit in which lamps are arranged in a chain, so that the
current has only one path to take. The current is the same through each load.

2. Parallel Circuit is a circuit in which lamps are connected across the wires. The
voltage across each load on parallel circuit is the same. The advantage of
using parallel circuit is that even if one of the lamps fails, still the remaining
lamps will function.
 ELECTRICAL PLAN

Classification of Tools and Equipment

A tool is a device that can be used to produce an item or accomplish a task, but that
is not consumed in the process. It can be considered as extension of the human hand
thus increasing speed, power, and accuracy and on the other hands equipment
includes any machine powered by electricity.

1. Hand tools are tools manipulated by hands without using electrical energy such
as: puller, hacksaw, pull-push rule, pliers, hammer, and others.
2. Machine/Power tools are tools manipulated by our hands and with the use
of electrical energy such as: electric drill, grinding wheels, vacuum cleaner
and others.
3. Pneumatic tools are tools or instruments activated by air pressure.
Pneumatic tools are designed around three basic devices: the air cylinder, the
vane motor, and the sprayer.
Basic Maintenance of Electrical Tools and Equipment
To ensure that your electric tools work when you need them, you must take proper
care of them. A good routine of maintenance for your tools is one thing that you
can do to make sure that the tool you need is working when you need it.

1. Clean out the Dust. To make sure that your electric tools are ready to go when you
are, keep them clean and free of dust. Spend some time to clean out the dust
every once in a while on your tools while they are inactive in storage.
2. Check the Cords. Look for tear/cut insulator on the power cords on your electric
tools. This will ensure that your electric tool can get the power that it needs to
function without an accident.
3. Use the right tool correctly. Use tools correctly and for their intended purposes.
Follow the safety directions and operating procedures recommended by the
manufacturer. When working on a circuit, use approved tools with insulated handles.
4. Protect your Tools. Keep tools and cords away from heat, oil, and sharp objects.
These hazards can damage insulation. If a tool or cord heats up, stop using it.
Report the condition to a supervisor or instructor immediately.
5. Use double-insulated tools. Portable electrical tools are classified by the number
of insulation barriers between the electrical conductors in the tool and the worker.
6. Storing Your Tools. Keep your electric tools stored in their original cases and
containers. This will keep them free of dust and dirt while they are not being used.

Classification of non-functional and functional tools

Tools are very useful to us in our homes especially to our job. But tools that are
no longer functional may cause harm.
A. Make an inventory of functional and non-functional tools in your shop.
B. Classify your tools according to is function.

Methods of identifying non-functional tools and equipment

1. Visual inspection. It refers to the visual observation of an expert on the appearance
of the tools and equipment.
2. Functionality. Vibration or extra noise from the operation means problems on parts
and accessories started to develop.
3. Performance. When there is something wrong with the performance of either hand
tools or equipment they need an immediate repair or maintenance.
4. Power supply (for electrically operated only). Failure to meet the required power
supply, malfunction will occurs in the part of hand tools or equipment.
5. Person’s involved. It refers to the technical person who has the knowledge and
skills about the technology.

Non-functional tools and equipment are those that are not able to perform its
regular function because of impaired and damage part.

Examples of these are the following:

Functional tools and equipment are those that are in good condition and can
perform its regular functions. Examples of these are the following:

 HAZARDS AND RISKS

What is the difference between 'hazard' and 'risk'?

A hazard is something that can cause harm, e.g. electricity, chemicals,

working up a ladder, noise, a keyboard, a bully at work, stress.
Risk is the chance or probability that a person will be harmed or experience an
adverse health effect once to a hazard. It may also apply to situations with property
or equipment loss. A risk is the chance, high or low, that any hazard will actually
cause somebody harm.

Five Basic Workplace Hazards

1. CHEMICAL HAZARDS - A chemical hazard is any substance that can

cause harm, primarily to people. This includes cleaning products, bleaches,
paints, and other chemical agents.
2. PHYSICAL HAZARDS - Physical hazards are those substances which
threaten your physical safety. This includes machinery, electrical power,
noise, power and hand tools.
3. BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS – A biohazard is anything coming from living
organisms. This includes bacteria, viruses, insects, plants, birds, animals,
and humans.
4. ERGONOMIC HAZARDS - If your job is poorly designed, you can develop
long term health problems. These problems can arise from simple things,
like working for long periods in an awkward position or having to make the
same motions over and over again.
5. PSYCHOLOGICAL HAZARDS - Those that are basically causing stress to
a worker. This kind of hazard troubles an individual very much to an extent
that his general well-being is affected. Stress can lead to long-term health
problems. Headaches, anxiety, and impatience are early signs of stress.

Risk Assessment

A. Risk assessment is the process where you:

1. identify hazards
2. analyze or evaluate the risk associated with that hazard
3. determine appropriate ways to eliminate or control the hazard

B. Factors that influence the degree of risk include:

 how much a person is exposed to a hazardous thing or condition

 how the person is exposed (e.g., breathing in a vapor, skin
contact), and how severe are the effects under the conditions of
exposure

HAZARD CONTROL

All workplace hazards (chemical, physical, etc.) can be controlled by a

variety of methods. The goal of controlling hazards is to prevent workers
from being exposed to occupational hazards.
 To control hazards in your workplace you need to identify and
understand those hazards. Your first priority should always be to eliminate the
hazards. If the hazards can't be eliminated, try finding safer ways to carry out
those tasks by substituting less harmful substances or changing the work
environment through engineering controls. Also consider changing how work
activities are organized and performed. For example, reduce the time
workers are exposed to a hazard by rotating them to another task.
