Make Up Work: Test, Quizzes, and In Class and Lab Assignments
 Students can make up lost lab time from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm with pre approval.
 Students will have three days to make up any excused absence and still received
full credit.
 Students can be on homebound for no more than 2 weeks in any electricity class
due to the majority of the class being focused on the lab.
 Students who become unable to work for any reason must also find alternate
means after two weeks.
Fees:
 Students will be furnished with one pair of safety glasses at the beginning of
the year. If they become lost or broken students must purchase their own.
Glasses are $5.00 if purchased at the school.
 Students must pay for any lost or damaged books at cost before graduation.
 Field trips may require a fee for registration and transportation.

Electricity Classroom Rules
1. No unsafe acts of any kind will be tolerated in the classroom or shop. Examples are
 Running
 Hitting
 Pushing
 Tripping
 Throwing
 Or any other form of horseplay
2. No tobacco use of any kind.
3. No food or drinks allowed in classroom or shop unless authorized by instructor.
4. No inappropriate language or jesters.
5. Students will be in their seats, quiet, and ready for daily instruction when the tardy bell rings.
6. Safety glasses are to be worn at all times in the shop. No exceptions!!!
7. Absolutely no shorts, tank-tops, sandals, or flip flops allowed in the
shop. Long hair must be tied back while working in the shop.
8. Cleaning is everyone’s job! Do your assigned area.
9. Students must make 100% on all safety tests.

Do not work when you are tired or taking medicine that makes you drowsy.
Do not work in poor light.
Do not work in damp areas.
Use approved tools, equipment, and protective devices.
Do not work if you or your clothing is wet.
Remove all rings, bracelets, and similar metal items.
Never assume that a circuit if off. Check it with a device or piece of equipment that you are
sure is operating properly.
Do not tamper with safety devices. Never defeat an interlock switch. Verify that all interlocks
operate properly.
Keep your tools and equipment in good condition. Use the correct tools for the job.
Verify that capacitors have discharged. Some capacitors may store a lethal charge for a long
time.
Do not remove equipment grounds. Verify that all grounds are in tact.
Do not use adaptors that defeat ground connections.
Use only an approved fire extinguisher. Water can conduct electrical current and increase
that hazards and damage. Carbon dioxide and certain halogenated extinguishers are
preferred for most electrical fires. Foam types may also be used in some cases.
Follow directions when using solvents and other chemicals. They may explode, ignite, or
damage electrical circuits.
Certain electrical components affect the safe performance of the equipment. Always use the
correct replacement parts.
Use protective clothing and safety glasses when handling high-vacuum devices such as
television picture tubes.
Do not attempt to work on complex equipment or circuits before you are ready. There may be
hidden dangers.
18. Some of the best safety information for electrical and electronic equipment is in the literature
prepared by the manufacturer. Find it and use it
19. Never turn on the power without permission of the instructor.
20. No horseplay in shop or classroom.
21. Do not leave shop area without permission of instructor.
