If you have questions, do not hesitate to ask your teacher for assistance.
You may already have some basic knowledge and skills covered in this module.
If you can demonstrate competence to your teacher in a particular skill, talk to
him/her so you do not have to undergo the same training again. If you have a
qualification or Certificate of Competency from previous trainings, show it to
him/her. If the skills you acquired are consistent with and relevant to this module,
they become part of the evidence. You can present these for RPL. If you are not
sure about your competence skills, discuss this with your teacher.
After completing this module, ask your teacher to assess your competence.
Result of your assessment will be recorded in your competency profile. All the
learning activities are designed for you to complete at your own pace.
In this module, you will find the activities for you to complete and relevant
information sheets for each learning outcome. Each learning outcome may have
more than one learning activity.
LIST OF COMPETENCIES
INTRODUCTION:
This module consists of two (2) learning outcomes. Each learning outcome
contains learning activities supported by instruction sheets. Before you perform
the instructions, read the information sheets and answer the self-check and
activities provided to ascertain to yourself and your teacher that you have acquired
the knowledge necessary to perform the skill portion of the particular learning
outcome.
Flash Point is the temperature at which oil gives off ignitable vapors. The flash
point is not necessarily a safe upper limit for oil because some decomposition
takes place below the flash point.
Pour Point is the lowest temperature at which oil will pour or flow and is
most critical in low temperature applications.
Viscosity Index indicates how viscosity varies with temperature, which can
be an important consideration in applications where operating temperatures
very widely.

Learning objective: After reading this information sheet, you must be able to
identify the different types of measuring instrument.
There are types of measuring tool which are commonly used to perform
electrical work. There are two ways on how tools can be utilized. Tools like vernier
caliper, metric rule, steel rules are tools used to perform layout and installation of
a particular wiring materials. The tools like multi meter, clamp meter, electric
meter are common examples of tools used for measuring electrical magnitude like
the voltage current resistance or even the power consumption of particular
electrical appliances.
Choosing a multi-meter
The photographs below show modestly priced multi-meters which are suitable
for general electronics use. A digital multimeter is the best choice for your first
multimeter.Even the cheapest will be suitable for testing simple projects.
If you are buying an analog multimeter make sure it has a high sensitivity of
20k /V or greater on DC voltage ranges. Anything less is not suitable for
electronics. The sensitivity is normally marked in a corner of the scale, ignore the
lower AC value (sensitivity on AC ranges is less important), the higher DC value is
the critical one. Beware of cheap analogue multimeters sold for electrical work on
cars because their sensitivity is likely to be too low.
Analog Digital
The steel rule is considered to be the most convenient size to carry around.
Many steel rules have a "hook" feature that provides an accurate "stop" at the end

of the rule. This can be used to set calipers, dividers, etc. and to take
measurements where it is not possible to make sure that the end of the rule is even
with the edge of the work. Some workers refer steel rules as "machinists scales."
Metric rule is a tool used measure short and long distances. It is very important
when performing a layout and installation of electrical wiring fixture.
Caliper rule can be either vernier or micro meter. These tools are commonly
used to measure the diameter of a wires or thickness of steel plates . It can also be
used to measure the inner distance of a hole.

LEARNING EXPERIENCES/ACTIVITIES
SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENT
Learning objective: After reading this information sheet, you must be able
to understand the system of measurement in EIM NC-2.
Linear measures
1. English system:
The English system of measurement provides the creative way on how people
can measure by themselves. For example, people measure shorter distance on
the ground with their feet. They measure long distances by their palms which
is equal to a yard.
Inch
Yard
Miles
12 inches = foot(ft)
1 foot = 3yard (yd)
1 yard = 36 inches
1 inch = 2.54 cm
1 foot = 30.48 cm
1 yard = 91.44 cm
Converting the unit of measurement from English to metric and vice versa
Example:
1. 24 inches = ________ cm Cancel the common unit and apply cross
Since multiplication.
24 inches = 2.54 cm
1 inch
5 x 12 inches
1
Therefore: 5 feet = 60 inches
_______ 6. Centimeter
_______ 7. Meter
_______ 8. Decimeter
_______ 9. Yard
_______ 10. Feet
1. 10 feet = _________ cm
2. 70 cm = _________ mm
3. 15 inches = _________ ft
4. 5 meters = _________ yard
Cm 6. Centimeter
M 7. Meter
Dm 8. Decimeter
Yd 9. Yard
Ft. 10. Feet
1. 10 feet = _________ cm
2. 70 cm = _________ mm
3. 15 inches = _________ ft
4. 5 meters = _________ yard
MULTITESTER
Learning objective: After reading this information sheet, you must be able to
familiarize the parts and uses of multitester.
Meter scale
pointer
Infinite position
adjusting screw
selector switch
Test probe
Positive and negative
Meter scale is used to identify the amount of voltage current and resistance of
the circuit being measured.
Pointer is a movable part of the multi-tester which deflects and indicates the
reading.
Infinite position adjusting screw is used to adjust the pointer to zero before
testing is performed in order to gain an accurate measurement.
Range Selector switch is composed of several setting for voltage, current and
resistance which is used to indicate the kind of range( voltage, current and
resistance)to be measured.
Test probe positive (red), negative (black) is used to connect the circuit to the
electrical components being tested.
