Tools, Conduit, Boxes, and Code Basics
Grade 10 focuses on mastering real-world wiring materials and methods.
Students explore different types of conduit, cable systems, and fittings used in the field, and they begin applying the National Electrical Code (NEC) in their lab projects.

By the end of Grade 10, students will:
Identify and install common conduit and wiring materials.
Perform accurate conduit bends.
Apply basic NEC rules to wiring layouts.
Students begin thinking like electricians — problem-solving on the job site, reading plans, and communicating effectively with teammates.
The skills learned here translate directly to real apprenticeships and job readiness.
