Introductory Message

For the facilitator:

Welcome to the Electrical Installation and Maintenance Grade 9 Self-Learning

Module on Board Wiring no.1-Installing Two Lamp Controlled by Two Surface Type
SPST using Knobs and Tube!

This Self-Learning Module was collaboratively designed, developed and

reviewed by educators from the Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its
Officer-in-Charge Schools Division Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A.
Agustin, in partnership with the City Government of Pasig through its mayor,
Honorable Victor Ma. Regis N. Sotto. The writers utilized the standards set by the K
to 12 Curriculum using the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) in
developing this instructional resource.

This learning material hopes to engage the learners in guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims to help learners
acquire the needed 21st century skills especially the 5 Cs, namely: Communication,
Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking, and Character while taking into
consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
body of the module:

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this
module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to
manage their own learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and assist the
learners as they do the tasks included in the module.

LESSON

BOARD WIRING NO. 1- INSTALLING TWO LAMP CONTROLLED BY

TWO SURFACE TYPE SPST USING KNOBS AND TUBE
1. Prepare your drawing plan

7
2. Prepare and put near beside you all the materials, tools, equipment and PPE’s
need for the works.

3. Prepare your wiring board or working area by layout all measurement given
on your job sheet plan and drawing plan using pencil, meter square and frame
square

4. In measurement, always consider finding the center of conduit, raceways and

devices as references for layout design.

8
5. Always level the position of layout vertically and horizontally.

6. For final marking layout of conduit, raceways, boxes and devices always
used chalk.

7. Always mounted or install first all boxes after that connector and adopter
then if you need to tighten it follow the standard torque specification.

8. Mount all box type lighting fixture and surface type receptacle according to
given measurement and locations but don’t forget when lighting material like
incandescent bulb used flush type receptacles use junction box for mounting
receptacle.

9
9. Put the standard wire inside the service panel, and all boxes based on the
Philippine Electrical Code (PEC) and strip the wire carefully then connect it
to the terminal of service panel as sources, switches and to incandescent lamp
then attach it to knobs ready for wiring connections.

10. Splices all joints and connect it according to wiring connections standards
do not forget that you must carefully tape all joints with electrical tape.

10
Safety Precaution
1. Always provide tube in the two wires crossing each other to avoid contact
between the two wires

2. All the connections in lighting circuit must base on the standard

3. Always conduct continuity check to know and identify the possible wiring
defects

4. When wiring installation is finish always ask your teacher assistance to

evaluate your works

ACTIVITIES
DRAWING: Complete the circuit of Two Lamp Controlled by Two Surface Type SPST
using Knobs and Tube in a Pictorial Diagram as ACTIVITY NO. 2 and labelled the
parts of the complete circuit as ACTIVITY NO. 2

Note: Do not change the position of electrical materials
