Introductory Message
For the facilitator:

Welcome to the Technical-Vocational Livelihood 12 Self-Learning Module on

Read Measurements In Terms of Current and Voltage.

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by educators

both from public and private institutions to assist you, the teacher or facilitator in
helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum while
overcoming their personal, social, and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also aims to help
learners acquire the needed 21st century skills 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:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies that will help

you in guiding the learners.

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. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and assist the
learners as they do the tasks included in the module.
For the learner:

Welcome to the Technical-Vocational Livelihood 12 Self-Learning Module on

Read Measurements In Terms of Current and Voltage.

This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities for
guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be enabled to
process the contents of the learning resource while being an active learner.

This module has the following parts:

Activity : This will bring understanding to what you already know

and experience to what you should learn further.

Analysis : In this phase, you will process and classify what is valid
and not for a more in-depth understanding.

Abstraction : This part leads you in reinforcing what you know and
should know more. Exercises are presented for
independent practice to solidify your understanding and
skills of the topic.

Application : This stage brings you to a more practical way that you
are going to use what you have learned and think new
ways on how it can be improved further.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1. Determine the equivalent count per tick within a specific range of a scale
of the multi-tester for current and voltage.
2. Read measurements in terms of current and voltage.
3. Express interest on determining the equivalent count per tick in the scale
and the set range of selector switch in measuring current and voltage.

INTRODUCTION

This module will help you realize the value of being vigilant. In this sense, you
are encouraged to become observant in order to learn deeply the different scale
ranges set by the two units that you are about to learn.

Moreover, in this module you will be able to learn how to read measurements
of current and voltage. Just take the series of activities and as you learn make
reflections for you to have a deeper understanding of the lesson. Are you now
ready? Let's get started!

Reading Measurements in
Terms of Current and Voltage
In performing maintenance or repair of certain electrical devices, electricians
are challenged to understand how to set the selector switch to the right unit of the
multi-tester based on the type of situation where this unit may seem to fit. Knowing
to measure the continuity, source, and ampere rating that the device draws during
the operation is a requirement. As future electricians, we are not only focusing on
setting the selector switch to the right unit. Moreover, we are also required to do
reading measurements based on the point of the pointer of the multi-tester. Knowing
this is helpful in the sense that in doing maintenance there will be a time that we will
encounter low voltage in the actual situation. We cannot determine this if we don't
know on how to read measurements value point by the pointer of the multi-tester.

LEARNING ACTIVITIES

Activity 1 “Counting is Fun”

ABSTRACTION

This module will help you realize the value of being vigilant. In this sense, you
are encouraged to become observant in order to learn deeply the different scale
ranges set by the two units that you are about to learn.

The following are illustrations in reading measurements of the scale of a

meter specific current and voltage with samples.

Note: Only the 1000 volts set range in the selector switch has the multiplier in order to
match the set voltage of the selector switch with respect to the scale range to be focus
and that is 10 x 100 is equal to 1000. For voltage 10 – 250 the counting is already made
available in the scale. You just have to be aware of the equivalent value per tick.
