UNIT: ELECTRICAL SWITCHES AND RECEPTACLES W. C. “BUSTER” HOUNSHELL SPRING 2002 Virginia Tech
OBJECTIVES: • Performance Objective: Students will be able to identify and list the different types of wall switches and receptacles commonly use in electrical wiring for the home or farm stead
Enabling objectives: • Given the instruction in class, laboratory, and assignments- • Students will be able to list and identify the different types of wall switches, receptacles and their parts commonly used in wiring electrical circuits with a 70% accuracy:
Single pole Three-way switch Four-way switch Double switches Pilot light switch Switch/receptacles Timer switches Automatic switches Motion- sensor switches Programmable switches Time-delay switch Dimmer switch Switches to list and identify:
Normal receptacles 15 amps, 125 volts 15 amps,125 volts (grounded) 20 amps, 125 volts 15 amps, 250 volts High –voltage 30 amps 125/250 volts 50 amps, 125/250 volts Receptacles to list and identify:
Interest approach: • The uses of electricity are numerous and new developments are appearing nearly daily. • Electricity provides our homes, farms, businesses and industries with valuable resources that would otherwise be unavailable to us. • Science, medicine, transportation and even communications have been fortunate to make rapid technological advancements related to our understanding of electricity.
Interest approach: (Continued) • All phases of modern agriculture depend on the benefits of electricity • To better understand and benefit from the application of electricity • There are basic principles that one should become comfortable with.
