Introductory Message

Welcome to TVL (SHS) - IA (Electrical Installation and Maintenance)!

The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of the

Schools Division of Kabankalan City and DepEd Regional Office VI - Western
Visayas through the Curriculum and Learning Management Division (CLMD). This is
developed to guide the learning facilitators (teachers, parents and responsible adults)
in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Basic Education
Curriculum.

The Learning Activity Sheet is a self-directed instructional material aimed to

guide the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and time using the
contextualized resources in the community. This will also assist the learners in
acquiring the lifelong learning skills, knowledge and attitudes for productivity and
employment.

For learning facilitator:

The TVL 11 - IA (Electrical Installation and Maintenance) Activity Sheet

will help you facilitate the teaching-learning activities specified in each Most
Essential Learning Competency (MELC) with minimal or no face-to-face encounter
between you and the learner. This will be made available to the learners with the
references/links to ease the independent learning.

For the learner:

The TVL 11 - IA (Electrical Installation and Maintenance) Activity Sheet is

developed to help you continue learning even if you are not in school. This learning
material provides you with meaningful and engaging activities for independent
learning. Being an active learner, carefully read and understand the instructions then
perform the activities and answer the assessments. This will be returned to your
facilitator on the agreed schedule.

II. Background Information for Learners

Electrical Safety Practices save Lives and Properties

Electricity improves life. During power failures, much work and many routine activities
halt. However, electricity can cause serious injury and even death and lost of properties if
you fail to follow electrical safety practices, particularly in the workplace.
Electricity is also recognized as a serious workplace hazard that may cause electric
shock, burns, fires, and explosions. In fact, according to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics
(BLS), 289 employees were killed by contact with electric current in 2002. Others were killed
or injured in fires and explosions caused by electricity.

Causes of Electrical Accident

The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) cites three possible
factors causing electrical accidents: work involving unsafe equipment and installations;
workplaces made unsafe by the environment; and unsafe work performance (unsafe acts).
The first two factors sometimes are combined and referred to simply as unsafe conditions.
Thus, electrical accidents can be generally considered as being caused by unsafe conditions,
unsafe acts, or in most cases, combinations of the two. It should also be noted that
inadequate maintenance can cause serious damages and can create unsafe conditions.

SAFETY TIPS

LIGHTEN YOUR LOAD. Plan what you are going to do. Carry only the tools or
equipment you will need. Wear a tool belt the fits well and distribute the tools and materials
evenly.

PROTECT YOURSELF. Wear safety gears that fits well. Protect your knees from
hard, sharp surfaces by wearing knee pads. Wear eye protection to protect yor eyes from
debris and flying particales. Protect your hands from friction and sharp edges by wearing
gloves.

1
 PRACTICE GOOD HOUSEKEEPING. Pick up debris and scrap material to prevent
from trips, slips, and falls. Good housekeeping allows you and your equipment to work
efficiently.

CHANGE BODY POSITION. Working overhead or in cramped spaces forces the

body in awkward postures. To relieve muscle tension and improve circulation, change body
positions, alternate task, and stretch throughout the day.
