Objective: Your team will design and construct an electric house with separate series, parallel, a 2-way switch and a combination circuit. The house will consist of one or two stories. Each house will contain at least the following areas: one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen, a porch, a front door, and a living room/dining area. Each individual room will be illuminated by its own lights. Materials: Your team will provide the materials needed for the house frame, glue, additional tools, decorations, furniture, and the batteries.You will receive: light bulbs, insulated wire, buzzer, two switches, wire strippers, electrical tape/10 caps
Scoring rubric: The score of your project consists of 320 points. 160 points will be with a group; 160 points will be individually earned. The points are divided into 4 parts.
I. Group project: the house: 55 points Meeting minimum construction requirements: neat house assembly, four rooms, and a porch: 10 points successfully meeting series circuit minimum requirements (3 series bulbs that light): 10 points successfully meeting parallel circuit minimum requirements (3 parallel bulbs that light): 20 points successfully meeting complex (combination) circuit minimum requirements (2 parallel and 1 series circuit): 25 points successfully meeting 3-way switch requirement: 15 points successful wiring doorbell ec 10
II. Documentation: 60 points A circuit diagram for each of the 4 circuits. All voltage drops and ammeter splits must be shown and documented with work.
