    Materials – consumable
    Utility – designed for
    general use.
    The following are electrical devices and
    materials used in the assembly of basic
    electrical gadgets such as extension cord, lamp
    shade, etc. These are developed and
    constructed for a special purpose such as to:
     Control the flow of current in an
    electrical circuit.
     Carry electrical current from the source to
    the load or current consuming apparatus.
     Control the flow of current in an
    electrical circuit.
     Carry electrical current from the source to
    the load or current consuming apparatus.
     Hold and secure wires to its fixtures
    inside and outside houses and
    buildings.
     Protect the houses, buildings,
    appliances and instruments from any
    destruction and damage.
    CONVENIENCE OUTLET

    Convenience Outlet is a device that


    acts as a convenient source of electrical
    energy for current consuming appliances.
    It is where the male plug of an appliance
    is inserted and usually fastened on the
    wall or connected in an extension cord. It
    maybe single, duplex, triplex or
    multiplex and could be surface type
    or flush type.

    ELECTRICAL CONDUITS AND ACCESSORIES
    TYPES OF
    ELECTRICAL
    CONDUITS
    PVC CONDUIT PIPE

    PVC Conduit Pipe – are popular


    type of electrical conduit used for
    above ground and underground
    applications. These conduits are
    made of high quality PVC and are
    flexible in nature. The pipes have
    high electrical strength and impact
    resistance.
    PVC CONDUIT PIPE
    RIGID STEEL •Rigid Steel Conduit
    – This heavy-duty
    CONDUIT pipe has threaded
    ends.
    ELECTRICAL METALLIC
    TUBING (EMT)
    Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT)
    – These conduits are relatively easy
    to bend, cut, and form. This light
    gauge pipe is also known as thin
    wall conduit.
    Electrical metallic tubing(EMT)
    NONMETALLIC CONDUITS OR
    PVC CONDUITS

    Nonmetallic Conduits or PVC


    Conduits – These are circular in
    shape and generally corrugated. These
    conduits are used in underground
    installations. These are popular because
    these provide high strength, have a low
    absorption rate, watertight joints, and
    have low installation costs.
    NONMETALLIC CONDUITS OR
    PVC CONDUITS
    GALVANIZED RIGID
    CONDUITS (GRC)

    Galvanized Rigid Conduits


    (GRC) – These metallic conduits
    are coated with zinc for increasing
    resistance to corrosion and
    abrasion.
    GALVANIZED RIGID
    CONDUITS (GRC)
    INTERMEDIATE METAL
    CONDUITS (IMC)

    Intermediate Metal Conduits


    (IMC) - These have circular
    raceways that are rigid and have
    thinner walls as compared to rigid
    metal conduits.
    INTERMEDIATE METAL
    CONDUITS (IMC)
    FLEXIBLE METALIC
    CONDUIT

    This is a variety of piping used to
    hold electrical wires and similar
    cabling.

    CLAMPS

    Clamps- electrical materials


    used to hold and anchor electrical
    conduits to their proper position.
    CLAMPS
    CONNECTORS
    Connectors – These are devices
    used for joining electrical circuits
    as an interface using a mechanical
    assembly.
    Also, these are used for attaching
    metallic or non-metallic conduit to
    the junction or utility boxes.
    CONNECTORS
    CONNECTORS
    FASTENERS

    Fasteners – These are used to


    fasten the conduits on walls or
    other framing parts.
    FASTENERS
    ACTIVITY
    By group, collect at least 3 actual
    electrical conduits and 2 actual
    electrical conduit accessories.
    Next, organize and fix it in a short
    folder using glue or tape and label
    each name. Afterwards, present it to
    the class.
    The group will be scored based on the
    given rubric below.
    Quiz
    Direction: Give the following:
