Introductory Message

Welcome to TVL 12 – 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

iii
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 12 – 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 12 – 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.

Select the Wiring Used in the Floor and Ground Fault Current Interrupter

I. Learning Competency with Code

2.2 Install the wiring devices for floor and ground fault current
interrupter in accordance with PEC standards. TLE_IAEI10WDIIIa-
IVj-2

II. Background Information for Learners

Electrical installation can be done anywhere as long as it follows electrical

safety, proper devices, product manual, and conforms to PEC/NEC. Here we will
tackle the floor wiring devices and ground fault circuit interrupter.

Floor electrical devices include but not limited to power supply and
communication. The main purpose of this discussion is for safety of person,
materials, and property. In modern building floor devices and ground fault circuit
interrupter is designed for safety and beauty making it pleasing to the eye.

A. Devices used for floor

a. Telephone Floor Outlet

Use for telephone connection

b. Data Floor Outlet

Use for internet data connection

c. Tv Floor Outlet
Use for TV antenna connection

1
 d. Audio/ Video Floor Outlet
Use for adio and video connection

e. Power Floor Outlet

Use for power device connection

f. Combination Floor Outlet

Combination of the above floor outlets

B. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is an automatic device that offers

personal protection against lethal electrical shock or electrocution. It is a special
electrical receptacle or outlet that can stop electrical power within milliseconds as a
safety precaution.

GFCIs are generally installed where electrical circuits may accidentally come
into contact with water. They are most often found in kitchens, bath, and laundry
rooms, or even out-of-doors or in the garage where electric power tools might be
used.

Types of Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)

a. The GFCI outlet

It is like a standard electrical outlet and protects any
appliance plugged into it. The GFCI outlet can also be
wired to protect other outlets that are connected to it.

2
b. GFCI Circuit Breaker
It controls and protects an entire circuit and is
installed as a replacement for a standard circuit
breaker in a home’s main circuit board. Compared to
multiple GFCI outlets, one GFCI circuit breaker can
protect the entire circuit which may include all
bathrooms or all outdoor fixtures.

c. Portable GFCI
a. It is used for mobile applications and can work as well
as the ones installed in a house. Portable GFCIs are
frequently used by contractors on worksites. But
Portable GFCI protection could also be put to use
whenever electrically powered equipment is used in
garden related works and when using electric tools in
and around the house.
