Electrical installation principles

T-Level: Building Services Engineering: Electrical installation principles

What you'll learn

  1. 1

    Think of electricity like water flowing through pipes. The wires are the pipes, and the electrons are the water. 💧

  2. 2

    What does a thin wire do to the flow of electricity?

  3. 3

    Here's a simple circuit: a battery, a wire, and a lamp. The electrons flow from the battery, through the wire, and light the lamp. 💡

  4. 4

    Build a simple circuit by dragging the parts into the right order: battery, wire, lamp, wire back to battery. 🔌

  5. 5

    Let's check if this circuit will work: Battery connected to a lamp with one wire, but the other lamp terminal is not connected. ❌

  6. 6

    What happens if you cut one wire in a complete circuit?

  7. 7

    Which of these is a complete circuit? (Tap the correct one)
