This teaching guide on electrical building maintenance, one in a series of six publications designed for building maintenance instructors in Texas, is designed to give students an understanding of electricity in order to know how to make basic repairs to the electrical systems in a building. Introductory material provides teachers with information on the use of the units of instruction and personalization and localization of the units. Each of the eight units of instruction consists of eight basic components: performance objectives, suggested activities, information sheets (content essential for meeting the cognitive requirements), assignment sheets (application of knowledge), job sheets (procedures to give direction to the skills being taught), transparency masters, unit tests, and test and assignment sheet answers. The eight units cover fundamentals of electricity, electrical safety, electrical tools and materials, the volt-ohm meter and other testing tools, wiring circuits, troubleshooting, minor electrical repairs, and electric motors.
