PROCEDURES
Question 1
What, exactly, is necessary to establish electrical continuity between two wires? If I want to have an
electric current flow out of one wire and into another, what must be done with those two wires to
make that flow path complete?
Conversely, what things might prevent continuity from being established between two wires when
they are supposed to electrically connect with one another?
Question 2
What type of electrical test would be the most direct means of checking the integrity of an electrical
connection between two conductors? Explain your answer.
Question 3
What is the difference between a plug and a jack? What are these two devices used for? Draw the
schematic diagram symbols for single-conductor plugs and jacks.
Question 4
What is a terminal block, or terminal strip? How are these devices used to make electrical
connections between different conductors?
Question 5
What is generally considered to be the maximum number of individual wires that may be attached to
a single terminal on a terminal block?
1. What is the name of this part that opens and closes an electric circuit?
A. a load
B. a wire
C. a switch
D. a power source
This enable students to gained knowledge on the simple engineering concepts which includes accuracy,
mathematics, creativity and critical thinking ability.
In the previous lesson, they have learned that electric current is a measure of the number of electrical charges
passing through a cross-section of a conductor in a given time. They have also understood voltage is the
difference potential energy of charged particles. The battery supplies the energy in electric circuits. When
electric charges flow through the wires and loads of the circuits, they encounter resistance or a hindrance to
their movement. So, another factor that resist the flow of charges or current is resistance. You have also use
different electrical parts to build a circuit.
COMPLETE ME!!!
A. Match and Fill the table: Match column of Circuit Parts with the symbol, name and the function of the
electrical components. Draw the symbol and write the name and the letter of the components from the provided
information.
THE LOOP
In doing this activity, students will need to prepare the following;
• 1 - 2.2 V light bulb with holder
• 2 - 1.5 V dry cell
• 1 switch
• 3 connecting wires w/ alligator clips
PROCEDURE:
1. Set-up a circuit connection as shown in Figure 1 (make sure that the switch
is open or turned ‘OFF’).
2. Next, close the switch. a) What happens to the bulb?
____________________________________________________________ ______________________
Why is this so?
___________________________________________________________________________________
3. Open the switch. b) What do you observe?
__________________________________________________ _________________________________
4. Close the switch but loosen or disconnect the bulb.
c.) What do you observe?
______________________________ _____________________________________________________
5. Put back the bulb but disconnect the dry cell.
d.) What do you observe?
______________________________ _____________________________________________________
e.) How would you explain what you observed in Steps 3 - 5?
____________________________________________________________________________________
f.) In your own words, describe what an electric circuit is?

PART 1
Given the following materials,
PART II
Given the following materials,
2 - 2.2 V light bulb with holder
2 - 1.5 V dry cell
4 connecting wires w/ alligator clips
Procedure:
Construct a circuit such that if you unscrew one bulb, the other bulb will remain lit. Note the brightness of the
bulbs before you unscrew one bulb.
GUIDE QUESTIONS:
1. How many pathways are there in Circuit A?
2. What do you call circuit A?
3. How many pathways are there in Circuit B?
4. What do you call circuit B?
BULB MIND!
H. Assimilation From the previous discussion, try answering the guide questions below.
V. LET'S APPLY IT!
REFLECTION Have you ever encountered problems with your Christmas lights at home like when the bulbs do not glow
anymore because of only one busted bulb? But why are Christmas lights connected in series, anyway, if that is
a problem?
Q2. Would it be better to have the lights on a Christmas tree in series or parallel? Why?
Q3. Are the appliances in your house connected-up in series or parallel? How can you tell?
_________________________________________________________________________________
Q4. What are the advantages of having a parallel connection for the appliances at home?
_________________________________________________________________________________
Q5. If appliances were connected through series circuits, what could possibly happen?
_________________________________________________________________________________
Q6. What are the advantages and disadvantages of series and parallel circuits?
_________________________________________________________________________________
Life Application/Reflection
When you plan to have more connections, what are the things that you should do or consider? Why?
