Learning Task 1:
A. Direction: Comparison Statements
Using a VENN DIAGRAM. Make a comparison on the differences of metal and non-metallic wire ways.
Rubrics in scoring.
D. Development (Time Frame: 1 hour
Discussion of the lesson:
Provisions for Metal Wire Ways
1. No conductor larger than that for which the wire way is designed shall be installed in any wire way.
2. Shall not contain more than 30 current carrying conductors at any cross section.
3. Where insulated conductors are defected within the wire way of greater than 30 degrees.
4. Splices and top shall be permitted within a wire way provided.
5. Dead end of wire way shall be closed.
6. Extensions from wire ways shall be made with cord pendants.
7. Wire ways shall be marked so that their manufacturers name or trademark will
be visible after installation.
8. Grounding shall be in accordance with the provision of Article 2.50 of PEC.
Provisions for Nonmetallic Wire Ways
Uses Permitted:
1. Only for exposed work, except as permitted.
2. Where subject to corrosive vapors.
3. In wet location were listed for the purpose.
Uses Not Permitted
1. Where subject to physical damage.
2. In any hazardous location, except as permitted
3. Where exposed to sunlight values listed and marked as suitable for the purpose.
4. Were subject to ambient temperature.
5. For conductors whose insulation temperature limitation would exceed those for which the non – metallic wire way is listed.
Other articles for nonmetallic wire ways
1. No conductor larger than that which nonmetallic wire way is designed shall be installed.
2. Number of conductors shall not exceed 20 percent of the interior cross- sectional area.
3. Splices and taps, shall not fill more than 75 percent of its cross -sectional area.
4. Dead end of nonmetallic wire way shall be closed using listed fitting.
5. Extension shall be made with cord pendant.
6. All have limited smoke producing characteristics.

IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES
2. Nonmetallic Wire Ways – are flame retardant, nonmetallic through with removable covers for housing and protecting
electric wire and cables in which conductors are laid in place after the wire way has been installed as a complete system.

IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES
Assimilation (Time Frame: 30 minutes)
Wire ways are units of assembly of troughs used for housing and protecting electric wire and cable and in which
conductors are laid in place after the wire way has been installed as a complete system.
There are two types of wire ways which are Metal Wire Ways – are sheet metal through with hinged or removable
covers for housing and protecting electric wire and cable and in which conductors are laid in place after the wire
way has been installed as a complete system and Non Metallic Wire Ways – are flame retardant, nonmetallic
through with removable covers for housing and protecting electric wire and cables in which conductors are laid in
place after the wire way has been installed as a complete system.
