To the Instructor:
This lesson plan is intended as an outline to help you schedule the semester. You will
find that every class is different, and some sessions may require more time than
allowed, others may go quickly. Please make notes during the semester and provide us
with your feed-back so we may evaluate this schedule for future application.
Please read the forward information in each book used for additional help in
understanding the material covered in each lesson. Students learn differently, and the
same methods of presentation and study do not necessarily bring the same results for
different individuals. Be aware of the differences in learning styles as you present this
material to the class. Some individuals learn better visually, and need to see diagrams
and illustrations. Others learn from audible input, lectures, and class group discussions.
Hands-on learning is an important component of education, and much of the hands-on

learning will be done on the job-site rather than in the classroom. Due to the limitations
of classroom facilities, there is not much of an opportunity for hands-on experiments.
Keep your eyes open for opportunities to bring equipment and material in to show the
class when it is feasible. Just a little “show and tell” of components they have not used
yet, like control pushbuttons or AFCI breakers can help add understanding to a lesson.
When possible, try to supplement classroom instruction with field trips to view live
construction projects that showcase the material being studied.
It is recommended that the lesson material be presented using lecture, including visual
aids when possible. PowerPoint presentations using a LCD projector can be very
beneficial, but it is understood that the necessary equipment is not always available. In
some cases, facilities available may limit the presentation to the use of student books
and blackboards.
Make use of student discussion and involvement as much as possible. For instance, in
many cases there are workbook questions that are assigned. After completing the
questions, have the students take turns reading the question and their answer so they
are involved in the process. Do not just read the answers to them or post the answers.
Do what you can to involve the students in discussion and allow their input. Answer
questions honestly, and don’t be afraid to tell them if you don’t know the answer, but
take time to look it up.
Let your students know that you do not know all the answers, but you are there to help
them in the learning process. Make them responsible to read and study the information
in their text books and participate in discussions. Let them know that learning is a life-
long process, and there are always new things to learn in the electrical field. You will be
successful as an instructor if you have a heart for your student and help them develop a
respect for the electrical profession and a love for learning.

INSTRUCTOR NAME:
INSTRUCTOR CONTACT INFORMATION:
START DATE: END DATE:
Description: The first year introduces apprentices to the principles associated with
electricity and electrical theory pertaining to direct current. These basic fundamentals
are necessary in understanding complex national electrical code requirements covered
throughout the program. In the latter part of the year students will begin utilizing the
National Electrical Code and learn proper installation methods commonly used in
residential wiring.
Upon Successful completion students should be able to;
 Identify hazards associated with electricity and in the construction field

 Explain the proper PPE required for specific applications
 Discuss methods of minimizing or eliminating the potential for hazards when
working around electricity
 Understand the components of matter and their electrical properties
 Analyze basic electrical circuits (Series, Parallel, and Series-Parallel)
 Calculate unknown values using Ohm’s Law
 Explain the purpose of the National Electrical Code and its arrangement
 Understand terms as used in the National Electrical Code
 Layout electrical equipment in accordance with required working space
 Demonstrate proficiency referencing code articles in the general requirements
 List locations requiring ground fault and arc fault protection
 Determine required locations of receptacle and lighting outlets in dwelling units
 List types of overcurrent protection and their standard ratings

Second Year
TOPICS: AC Fundamentals & Commercial Wiring
CONTACT HOURS: 144
PREREQUISITES: None
INSTRUCTOR NAME:
Description: This semester focuses on the principles of alternating current. Major

areas of focus are on inductance, capacitance, and electrical circuits. Electrical systems
are also discussed in depth. Some equipment specific to alternating current will be
introduced. Commercial wiring methods and practices will also be covered in depth
during this training year.
 List advantages of utilizing alternating current

 State the operation and purpose of overcurrent and ground fault protection
 Explain inductance and capacitance as well as their respective reactance
 Understand the components of matter and their electrical properties
 Analyze basic electrical circuits (Series, Parallel, and Series-Parallel)
 Calculate unknown values using Ohm’s Law
 Understand the importance of grounding and bonding
 Demonstrate proper use of PPE and electrical meters (Multimeters)
 Demonstrate good conduit bending techniques
 Install conductors in various raceway types correctly
