Rigid metal conduit can also be bent using hickey or conduit bender. It
follows the same procedure bending electrical metallic tubing.
Cut
Conduit is cut with hacksaw or pipe cutter. For easy and safe way of cutting, a
bench vise is recommended so that pipe can be held firmly while it is being cut.
Ream
After cutting the pipe with hacksaw or pipe cutter, it leaves burrs. This must
be removed to avoid damage of wire insulation when it is inserted in it. A reamer
or round file can be used to remove burrs.
Since rigid metal conduit is commonly used in places where there is wet
location, sealing of termination can be best done if pipe is treaded. These will
prevent water from entering the conduit. The use of dies and dies stock keep the
end of the pipe threaded. The sizes of dies stock ranges from ½ to 6 inches.

INTRODUCTION
How many of us have used the name conduit to describe all enclosures in
which conductors and cables are run? Raceway is the accepted name for a
metallic or non-metallic channel in which conductors and cables are run.
Conduit is correctly used only for raceways with conduit in the name. These
include flexible and rigid-metal conduit, rigid-nonmetallic conduit and liquid-
tight flexible conduit. Several types of raceways look similar to conduit, but use
tubing in the name. These include flexible-metallic tubing, electrical nonmetallic
tubing and electrical-metallic tubing. Installation and support requirements are
different for conduit and tubing. If you are not sure what you are looking at,
raceway is a good generic name.

INFORMATION SHEET 1.1
INTRODUCTION
Signal and alarm are just like installing lighting circuit which involve switch
or push button, signal equipment and a conductors. There are provisions that
should be followed in installing signal and alarm wiring.
All signal and alarm system has its specific function and uses which the
purpose and need of its user. Deciding which of these devices will be used can
easily be done if you have basic knowledge of the feature and components of
each device in installing this kind of circuit.
The signal and alarm system may come in remote control, automatic or
manual in nature. These devices include the buzzer, the bell, the chime the
code-calling system, the signal light and the like. The conductor of this system
uses a small wire commonly no. 18 or 16 copper wires solid or stranded.
In some cases batteries had been used as power source, whenever that AC
source is available, a step down transformer ranging from 6v- 18v is usually
used. This is to lessen the use and trouble of the batteries.
4
Types of signal and alarm system
Electric Bell.
When the switch is pushed closed, the circuit is completed
and current flows through the electromagnetic coil.
5
The buzzer
Parts of buzzer
Electromagnet attracts and repels thin metal sheet which move rapidly
backed and forth.
Metal strip is a thin sheet of electromagnetic materials which vibrates
when electromagnet is energized and produces a buzzing sound.
6
The novel buzzer
The novel buzzer circuit uses a relay in series with a small audio transformer
and speaker. When the switch is pressed, the relay will operate via the
transformer primary and closed relay contact. As soon as the relay operates, the
normally closed contact will open, removing power from the relay, the contacts
close and the sequence repeats, all very quickly...so fast that the pulse of
current causes fluctuations in the transformer primary, and hence secondary.
The speakers tone is thus proportional to relay operating frequency. The
capacitor C can be used to "tune" the note. The nominal value is 0.001uF,
increasing capacitance lowers the buzzers tone
The Annunciator
Annunciator wiring systems are installed for the purpose of having all calls
terminated at a central station. An annunciator is a device used to indicate by
visual sign that transmit over electric call bell circuit. It is commonly used in
hospitals, elevators, hotels, offices, residences and other places where call is
required with bell.
Types of Annunciator
Gravity drop
Lamp annunciator
The gravity drop annunciator is composed of the drops, the bell and the
reset rack, the drop which shows the circuit number, consists of shutter, an
electromagnet and the armature. The reset rack is used to hold the drop in
the indicating position after being released and return to original position
when necessary, the shutter which is used to reset the rack and bell that
makes an alarm so that the call will be determined.
7
The Standard Lamp Annunciator
8
The open-circuit alarm
9
The closed circuit burglar alarm
The closed-circuit burglar alarm system operates the same way as the
open type system, the only difference is the position of the switch and the
use of relay. In this circuit, all switches are closed: when the doors and
window are forced to open, the switches will automatically open which
causes the relay to be energized and complete the bell circuit that makes it
ring.

Pressure Switches
Pressure switches are control devices that respond to the change of pressure
in liquid or air. The liquid or air is referred to as fluid pressure. They open or
close the electrical contacts in response to the pressure changes by either
turning on or off the motor or closing louvers, signaling warning light or horn.
For load 5hp the pressure switch may handle the current directly. For larger
loads the pressure switch is used to energize relays, contactor or magnetic
starter, which then energizes the load.

The term ―controller‖ includes any switch or devices normally used to start
and stop by making or breaking the motor circuit current.
For portable motor rated at 1/3 horse power or less, the controller shall be
permitted to be an attachment to plug or receptacles.
Controller designs
NEC provisions
Certain example of simple electrical circuit is a bulb and the switch used to
control the bulb on and off. In some complex example, the motor control can be
used to start and stop a motor controlling a small water pump. In a more
difficult task, motor controller can be used for reversing, changing speed,
jogging, sequencing or a traffic light control and conveyors.

Pilot lights
Control Transformer
Control transformers are used to step the voltage needed in the given
operation of the circuit. It is often desirable to operate at the control circuit at a
low voltage operation.
30
Control Relays
The most commonly control components is the relay. They are used widely
for switching several contacts of starting coil, pilot light and some audible
alarm. This can also be used for switching to separate the high and low voltage
source and AC and DC source.
Overload Relay
Overload relays are designed to meet the special protective needs of motor
control circuits. Over load relays:
Trip class
Overload relay are rated by a trip class, which is defined as the length of
time. It will take for relay to trip in an overload condition. Trip classes are class

The power circuit, indicate by the heavier line, is what actually distributes
power from the source to the connected load (motor). The control circuit,
indicated by lighter weight- line, is used to control the distribution power.
The "L1" and "L2" designations refer to the two poles of a 120 VAC supply,
unless otherwise noted. L1 is the "hot" conductor, and L2 is the grounded
("neutral") conductor. These designations have nothing to do with inductors,
just to make things confusing. The actual transformer or generator supplying
power to this circuit is omitted for simplicity. In reality, the circuit looks
something like this:
34
Typically in industrial relay logic circuits, but not always, the operating
voltage for the switch contacts and relay coils will be 120 volts AC. Lower
voltage AC and even DC systems are sometimes built and documented
according to "ladder" diagrams:
In ladder diagrams, the load device (lamp, relay coil, solenoid coil, etc.) is
almost always drawn represented by lines off lighter and heavier.

INFORMATION SHEET 2.1
Intercom system
Intercom access control system are available with option of one call and one
hand set to multiple call stations with hundreds of hand set. Intercom facilities
can be available in audio only and audio video facilities. The audio and video
system allows you to see who is calling at your front door, offices or gate before
you allow or deny access. An intercom system can be connected to electric door,
gates or electric locking devices.
47
Door & Camera Intercoms
Bedroom Intercoms
You can speak privately from any room station to other room station. By
using the ‗selective room calling‘ feature, people in other rooms will not be
disturbed. Using the Master Station, you are able to set the alarm clock, and
choose which room stations will hear it. Make sure those who need to get up are
up on time, and those who can sleep in are left alone. The Master Station has a
digitally tuned AM / FM radio. Press one button to listen to your favorite radio
station from any room within your home. Each room station retains individual
control of volume.
48
Video / Lounge Intercoms
Not only you can hear your children when they are
inside—the ‗monitor / camera‘ unit shows you what
they are doing, whether they are inside or outside.
Wherever your cameras are placed, the signal comes
back to the monitor on this station for you to view. You
can also switch between camera locations and monitor
doors and gates, using them in conjunction with the
front door answering units to see who is at your door.

He would communicate with the same person or group of people until the
system was manually reconfigured to allow communication with a different
group of people. Two-wire routers or source assignment panels were then
implemented to allow quick re-routing of a two-wire circuit. This reconfiguration
was usually handled at a central location, but because voltage is used on the
circuit to power the external user stations as well as communicate, there would
usually be a pop when the channels were switched. So while one could change
the system on-the-fly, it was usually not desirable to do so in the middle of a
production, as the popping noise would distract to the rest of the production
crew.

6. Plug one end of the red test lead to the volt/ohm terminal on the meter and
connect the test probe to the conductor to be tested.
7. Press the test button to apply the desired voltage and read the resistance
displayed on the meter. It could take a few seconds for the reading to settle.
The higher the resistance is the better.
8. Test each conductor against ground and against all the other conductors
present in the conduit. Keep a dated record of the measured values in a safe
place.
9. If some of the conductors show low resistance, identify the problem or re-pull
the conductors. Moisture, water, or dirt can create low resistance readings.

Procedure
3. Set the meter to the appropriate range for the voltage you expect to find.
(Note; When measuring an unknown voltage, select the highest range and
workdown.)
4. Touch the negative probe to a known ground and touch the positive lead to
the wire you are testing.
Safety precautions
Always wear eye protection and protective clothing or gear, as appropriate.
Do not work alone - in the event of an emergency another person's presence
may be essential.
Always keep one hand in your pocket when anywhere around a powered line
connected or high voltage system.

Procedure
1. Prepare tools, materials and equipment needed.
2. Wear appropriate PPE
3. Before proceeding with measurement, if the “ “ symbol appears on the
display, replace with new batteries.
4. Short the tips of the leads. Adjust the 0Ω ADJ control to set the reading to
zero.
5. Rotate the function switch to the “EARTH VOLTAGE” position and press to
test. Earth voltage will be displayed on the LCD. If earth voltage is more than
10V, an inaccurate reading may be obtained.
6. Precision earth resistance measurement method:
Connect the green, yellow and red test leads to instrument terminals E, P
and C with auxiliary earth spikes P1, C1 placed into the soil “IN A
STRAIGHT LINE”. (Fig. 1)
Rotate the function switch to a suitable range then press the push button
to test and take the reading.
7. Simplified earth resistance measurement method:
This method is recommended where an earth resistance higher than 10Ω
is measured or where it is not possible to drive auxiliary earth spikes. An
approximate value of earth resistance can be obtained by the two wire
system shown in Fig. 2.
Rotate the function switch to “EARTH VOLTAGE” position and press to
test. Make certain that earth voltage is less than 10V.
15
First rotate the function switch to the “200Ω position and press to test.
Read earth resistance. If the display shows “1”, switch to the “2KΩ”
position and read earth resistance.
The reading obtained (Rx) is an approximate earth resistance value.
There is no need for external shorting as P and C terminals are shorted by
using the test leads specified for the simplified measurement.
8. Record the data you have gathered.
9. Perform good housekeeping.

Caution
To protect yourself, think “Safety First”.
Voltages exceeding 30VAC or 60VDC pose a shock hazard so use caution.
Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, face
shields, insulating gloves, insulating boots, and/or insulating mats.
Never ground yourself when taking electrical measurements.
Always work with a partner.
When using the probes, keep fingers as far behind the probe tips as possible.

OPERATION SHEET 2.6
Procedure
1. Prepare tools, materials and equipment needed.
2. Wear appropriate PPE.
3. Connect the tester to the circuit under test.
4. Check for voltage on all phases: three LEDs marked “A”, “B” & “C” should be
on. If there is a lack of voltage on one of the test leads the corresponding LED
will not illuminate. If a voltage is present on one or two leads and the
remaining leads are connected to neutral or ground, both or all LEDs will
illuminate not including the phase sequence LEDs.
5. If the voltages of all phases are correct it is possible to read out the phases’
order by observing the illumination of the LED marked as “NORMAL (ABC)”
or “REVERSE”.
6. After conducting a test, the instrument should be disconnected from the
circuit under test. The tester left under voltage for long periods of time can
overheat. In such a case the built-in thermal protection will disconnect the
electronic system and the indications will be switched off. If such a situation
occurs, you should disconnect the tester from the installation and wait a few
minutes before another use of the tester (the tester will run automatically
after cooling down).
7. Record the data you have gathered.
8. Perform good housekeeping.
17
Caution
After transferring the tester from a cold place into a warm one, please, wait
about 30 min. to get the tester acclimated to the present conditions. You can
wipe the condensed dew, if necessary.
Do not operate the meter in the environment with explosive gas (material),
combustible gas (material), steam or filled with dust.
Insulate yourself from the objects being measured.
Do not make contact with any exposed metal (conductive) parts such as the
tips of the test leads, sockets, fixing objects, circuits, etc.
Do not conduct any measurements if the tester is defective, with the
defective casing or test leads (breakages, deformations, fractures,
contaminations, etc).
