III. LEARNING ACTIVITY
Teachers Activity
A. Preparatory Activities
* Prayer
* Checking of attendance
Review/ recall
Class can you still remember our past lesson?
Last meeting we were able to discussed about types of bends in EMT FITTINGS.
B. Activity
To find out our topic we will do a drill,
I will show you something,
this tells us what is our topic now.
C. Analysis
Class have you seen a light that is controlled in two different location?

Presentation of the lesson

This time we will learn how to connect the 3-way switch in two different locations.

Discussion:
A 3-way switch is an electrical switch that has 3 terminals
used to control a light in two different locations. This three terminal are, common terminal (letter C) , no.1
terminal, and no.3 terminal. (travelers terminal).

Trade terms:
1. Energize- to give energy or supply with an electric current.(PHYSICS)
2. Terminals- where the wire is part of an electrical wire that is connected or screws.
3. THHN- thermoplastic,high, Heat , Nylon

*Precations and Reminders:

In any electrical works, safety precautions comes first.
That’s why we also need to discuss some safety precautions
In order to achieve a safer and better result of works
So what are the reminders:

Safety Precautions:
1.Always wear personal protective equipment( PPE)
2. Always have presence of mind while working.
3. Do not connect directly to the source current.
4. Make sure that the two opposite lines not be contact
With each other.
5. Used appropriate tools in joining two wires.
 6. Test the circuit before connecting it to the source current
Steps in wiring 3- way switch
1. Prepare the diagram of the 3-way switch connection in two different location.
2. Connect the ground wire to the one terminal of the receptacle.
3. Connect the live wire to the common terminal of the 1st 3-way switch.
4. Connect the the n0.1 terminal of the 1st 3-way switch to the #1 terminal of the 2nd 3-way switch.
5. Connect the no.3 terminal of the 1st 3-way switch to the #3 terminal of the 2nd 3-way switch.
6. Connect the common terminal of the 2nd 3-way switch to the one terminal of the recceptacle.
7. Test the connection using multitester.
8. Energized.
E. Abstraction/Generalization
Now that we had already identify the steps in 3-way switch connections lets have a litle recap.
