Brief Introduction

A system of measurement is a set of units which can be used to specify

anything can be measured. Measurement is the process or the result of determining
the ratio of a physical quantity, such as a length, time, temperature, etc., to a unit of
measurement, such as the meter, second or degree Celsius.

Topic: System of Measurement

Objectives:
1. discuss the system of measurements;
2. measure and convert system of measurements as per job requirements; and
3. appreciate the value of system of measurements.

Learning Content:

SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENT

A system of measurement is a set of units which can be used to specify anything

can be measured.

These are common units of measurement used in making layout and installation of
electrical materials:
A. Linear measures

6
1. English system 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

2. Metric system is a decimalized system of measurement. It exists in several

variations with different choices of base units. Metric units are widely used around the
world for personal, commercial, and scientific purpose.
· Millimeter
· Centimeter
· Decimeter
· Meter

B. English units and each equivalent

· 12 inches = foot(ft)
· 3 feet = 1yard (yd)
· 1 yard = 36 inches

C. Metric units and each equivalent

· 10millimeter (mm) = 1centimeter (cm)
· 10centimeter = 1decimeter(dm)
· 10 decimeter = 1meter

D. English to metric equivalent

· 1 inch = 2.54 cm
· 1 foot = 30.48 cm
· 1 yard = 91.44 cm
E. The centimeter graduation
How to read the cm graduation:
1. First graduation is .5 mm
2. Second graduation is 1mm
3. Third graduation is 1.5mm
4. Fourth graduation is 2mm

Note: If the graduation reaches 10mm, it is equivalent to 1cm.

F. The inch graduation

7
How to read the inch graduation:
1. First graduation is 1/16
2. Second graduation is 18
3. Third graduation is 3/16
4. Fourth graduation is 1/4, then follow the given scale above.

Conversion Examples:

1. 12inches = _____ mm.

Since: 12inches = 254mm

1 Inch

(Cancel the common unit and apply cross multiplication)

12 x 254mm (Perform the indicated operation)

1

Therefore: 12inches = 3048mm

2. 6ft. = _____ inches

Since: 6ft. = 12inches

1ft.
6 x 12 inches
1

Therefore: 6feet = 72inches

3. 10mm = _____ cm.

Since: 10mm = 1 cm
10mm

Therefore: 10mm = 1cm

8
