What’s In
From chemicals to electrical equipment, laboratories reap a wide array of safety hazards,
which is why it is so vital to understand the important of lab safety. If something goes awry,
more than just your research project schedule can be affected. Equipment can be damaged,
fines can occur, and individuals on your team can be injured.
Let the learner read the lesson very well, then find
out how much he/she can remember and how
much she/he have learned by doing Self Check
What’s New
To complete the first step in any laboratory risk assessment, you must identify the
hazards in your lab. Every laboratory has hazards and, although it is a teacher task for
conducting formal risk assessments, it is still everyone’s responsibility to be mindful of
hazards in the laboratory and minimize risk of harm.
Not all hazards are obvious and they will be unique to your laboratory. This can make it
difficult to immediately identify and protect yourself from them.
8
What is It
Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control
You must identify the hazards where you are working and decide how dangerous they are.
Eliminate the hazard or modify the risk that it presents. This Module is intended to
give you some guidelines and advice on common areas of health and safety problems in the
electronic industry and to help you gain a general awareness of your responsibilities as
technician in a safe environment.
There are three steps used to manage health and safety at work:
1. Spot the Hazard (Hazard Identification)

2. Assess the Risk (Risk Assessment)
3. Make the Changes (Risk Control)
At work you can use these three Think Safe steps to help prevent accidents.
Using the Think Safe Steps
1. Spot the Hazard
A hazard is anything that could hurt you or someone else.
Examples of workplace hazards include:
 frayed electrical cords (could result in electrical shock)

 boxes stacked precariously (they could fall on someone)
 noisy machinery (could result in damage to your hearing)
During work experience, you must remain alert to anything that may be dangerous. If you
see, hear or smell anything odd, take note. If you think it could be a hazard, tell someone.
2. Assess the Risk

Assessing the risk means working out how likely it is that a
hazard will harm someone and how serious the harm could be.
Whenever you spot a hazard, assess the risk by asking yourself
two questions:
 How likely is it that the hazard could harm me or someone
else?
 How badly could I or someone else be harmed?
9
Always tell someone (your employer, your supervisor or your health and safety representative)
about hazards you can't fix yourself, especially if the hazard could cause serious harm to
anyone.
For example:
 Ask your supervisor for instructions and training before using equipment.
 Ask for help moving or lifting heavy objects.
 Tell your supervisor if you think a work practice could be dangerous.
If you are not sure of the safest way to do something during work experience, always ask your
work experience supervisor
3. Make the Changes
It is your employer's responsibility to fix hazards.

Sometimes you may be able to fix simple hazards yourself,
as long as you don't put yourself or others at risk. For
example, you can pick up things from the floor and put
them away to eliminate a trip hazard
Common hazards encountered by electronic technicians

A hazard is a situation in the workplace that has the potential to harm the health and safety
of people or to damage plant and equipment. The situation could involve a task, chemical or
equipment used.
Hazard management is a continuous process that can be used to improve the health and
safety of all workplaces.
1. Physical Hazards
One of the most common physical hazards involving
electronic technicians is
 Cables running across the floor. If someone trips,
falls, and hurts himself because of a cable you ran
across the floor, someone (you, your employer, or
your customer) has a serious legal negligence
problem.
 Leaving tools on top of ladders and placing electronic equipment in precarious positions
or on support that is not sturdy enough or not designed for holding electronic
equipment.
 Soldering tools such as soldering iron, soldering gun
and hot air soldering causes extreme heat and burn
in the skin when improperly used.
 Cutting tools may inflict injuries when improperly
handled due to its sharp edges that can cut through
the skin of the human body.
10
2. Mechanical Hazards-
Mechanical hazards are created as a result of either powered or manual (human) use of tools,
equipment.
An example of a mechanical hazard is: contact and/or entanglement with unguarded moving
parts on a machine.
Some of the injuries that can occur as a result of mechanical hazards are as follows:
 impact - being hit by ejected parts of the machinery

or equipment friction and
 abrasion - e.g. use of hand drill, hammer
 entrapment - being caught in a moving part of a
machine or equipment
 stabbing and puncture - e.g. screwdriver use
 cutting - severing of a human body part by a cutting
motion e.g. amputation of finger on a cutting
machine
3. Chemical Hazards
There is a wide array of chemicals used with electronic equipment. Some of these chemicals
can be harmful if accidentally swallowed, get on bare skin, or get in eyes. Before using any
chemicals for electronic equipment always read the warnings and instructions on the label.
 Soldering Lead - Lead on your skin can be

ingested and lead fumes can be given off during
soldering. Other metal fumes can also be
hazardous. Lead can have serious chronic health
effects.
 Hydrogen peroxide is use to dissolve copper in
creating a printed circuit board
Hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidizer and can
be corrosive to the eyes, skin, and respiratory
system. This chemical can cause burns to the skin
and tissue damage to the eyes.
4. Electrical hazard
An electrical hazard can be defined as a dangerous condition where a worker could

make electrical contact with energized equipment or a conductor, and from which the person
may sustain an injury from shock.
 Wet hands - touching electrical devices with wet hands, wet feet, or especially in a
sweaty condition is dangerous.
11
 Loose or improper connections, such as electrical outlets or switches
 Frayed appliance or extension cords
 Pinched or pierced wire insulation, which could occur from, for example, a chair leg
sitting on an extension cord
 Cracked wire insulation caused by heat, age, corrosion or bending
 Overheated wires or cords
 Damaged electrical appliances
 Electrical wire that has been chewed by rodents

What’s In
To work with electronic and electrical circuits, you need to acquire special hand tools
and equipment. Each of these hand tool and equipment does one or more specific job in
connecting, replacing, assembling and servicing of electronic circuits.
In doing so it is better for you to learn first how to use these hand tools and equipment.
And where to use them, before you can start to build or assemble simple circuit up to
complicated ones.
Let the learner should read the Information Sheet 1.1 very
well, then find out how much he/she can remember and
how much she/he have learned by doing self check and
activities.
What’s New
A hand tool is a device for performing work on a material or a physical system using
only hands. The hand tools can be manually used employing force, or electrically
powered, using electrical current. Electronics hand tools is also classified according to
their uses: Driving tools, soldering tools, Splicing, Boring, Cutting, Auxiliary and
Equipment
21
What is It
Electronic Basic Hand Tools
A. Driving Tools
Screwdrivers are hand tools specifically designed to insert and tighten, or to

loosen and remove screws. A screwdriver comprises a head or tip, which
engages with a screw, a mechanism to apply force by rotating the tip, and some
way to position and support the screwdriver, the tip of which is shaped in to fit a
particular type of screw.
a. Slotted Screwdriver is used to drive or fasten negative slotted screws.
b. Phillips Screwdriver – used to drive or fasten positive slotted screw

s. It is ascrewdriver that could take greater torque and
could provide tighter fastenings
c. Jeweler's Screwdriver Set – is a set of small screw drivers composed

of slotted and Phillips screwdrivers
B. Soldering Tools
1.Soldering Iron – is a device for applying heat to melt solder in attaching two
metal parts. A soldering iron is composed of a heated metal tip and an insulated
handle. For electrical work, wires are usually soldered to printed circuit boards,
other wires, or small terminals. A low-power iron (20-30 Watts) is suitable for this work.
22
2.Soldering Tool Stand – is a place where the soldering iron is placed during
usage. This will keep the soldering iron away from flammable materials. The
stand often comes with a sponge used in cleaning the tip of the soldering iron.
3. Desoldering tool is used in removing soldered wires and components on printed

circuit boards for troubleshooting and repair purposes
C. Splicing Tools
1. Long Nose is used for holding, bending, and stretching the lead of
electronic component or connecting wires.
2. Side Cutter is a wire cutting pliers, though they are not used to
grab or turn anything, but are used to cut wires.
3. Wire Stripper- is a pair of opposing blades much like scissors or wire

cutters.The addition of a center notch makes it easier to cut the
insulation without cutting the wire
23
D. Boring Tools
1. 12V Mini-Drill – is used to bore or drill holes in the printed circuit board (PCB)
with sizes from 1/32” – 1/16”.
2. Portable Electric Drill is used for boring hole(s) in plastic or metal chassis with
the used of drill bits having sizes from 1/6” to approximately 1/4”.
E. Cutting Tools
1. Utility Knife is a common tool used in cutting various trades and crafts for
a variety of purposes
2. Hacksaw is used for cutting metals. Some have pistol grips which keep the
hacksaw firm and easy to grip. The small hand-held hacksaws consist of a
metal arch with a handle that fits around a narrow, rigid blade
Handle
Blade Pistol
Grip
Auxiliary Tools
1. Magnifying Glass is a convex lens which is used to produce a magnified image
of an object. The lens is usually mounted on a frame with a handle.
A magnifying glass worksby creating a magnified virtual image of an object
behind the lens. Some magnifying glasses are foldable with built- in light.
24
2. Paint Brush – made of bristles set in handle, use for cleaning dirty parts of a
circuit or an object.
Electronic equipment
Aside from hand tools, equipment are also needed for more accurate and quality
output. In this connection, three of the most used equipment are presented here for
you to be familiar with their uses and the proper way of maintaining them.
1. Multitester - is a device use to measure resistance, voltage, and current and

continuity.
2. Multi-Volts Power Supply –is used to supply the desired direct current voltages in
the circuit.

What’s New
Whenever you perform a task in the workshop you must use personal protective
clothing and equipment (PPE) that are appropriate for the task and which conforms with
your local safety regulations and policies.
Your skill in using tools and equipment will make your work less difficult and ensure
that tasks are performed properly and safely.
What is It
USING TOOLS BASED ON THEIR FUNCTIONS AND OPERATION
Flat head screwdriver- use a flat head screwdriver when you are working with a
slotted screw. Do not use a flat head screwdriver to remove a Phillips head screw. Never
use a screwdriver as a pry bar.
29
Phillips head screwdriver- use a Phillips head screwdriver with crosshead screws. Do
not use this type of screwdriver to puncture anything. This will damage the head of the
screwdriver.
 Use the proper type and size of screwdriver by matching it to the screw.
 Phillips and Flat Head are the most common types.
 Do not over tighten screws because the threads may become stripped.
Soldering Iron:
 Hold the soldering iron like a pen, near the base of the handle.
Imagine you are going to write your name! Remember to never touch the hot
element or tip.
 Always place the soldering iron in its stand after soldering.

The iron is very hot. Its operating temperature is about 400°C.
 Always wait a few minutes for the soldering iron to warm up.
You can check if it is ready by trying to melt a little solder on the tip.
 Wipe the tip of the iron on the damp sponge from time to time.
This will clean the tip.

What’s In
Soldering iron - used in joining two or more electronic components’ terminals and
connecting wires on printed circuit board (PCB). The ideal power rating used for this
purpose is 30 watts
Soldering gun- has a larger power rating, usually 100-140 watts. It is used for
soldering work requiring higher temperature like direct chassis soldering. This device is
36
also convenient for intermittent operation, since it heats almost instantaneously when
you press the trigger
Desoldering tool- used to remove soldering lead when a component is to beremoved
from the PCB where it is soldered. The soldered joint is heated by a soldering iron or a
soldering gun, and then the soldering tool pulls the molten solder out of the connection
Soldering iron stand- used to support a heated soldering iron when not in used
Paint brush- used in cleaning components mounted on printed circuit boards. It is also
used in removing dust inside and outside of electronic apparatus
Mini-drill - a tool used for drilling small holes through printed circuit boards (PCB),
wood or plastic. It consists of a chuck which is adjustable to handle drill bits from
1/32” to 1/16” diameter. This device is supplied with 12V dc voltage from a battery or
from an adapter with 12V dc output
Screwdriver - instruments designed to drive in and take out screws. The two most
common types used in the shop are the standard screwdrivers with a flat blade, and
the Philip Screwdriver with the crossed tip to fit the recesses of a Philips-head screw.
Both of these types are manufactured in various sizes and styles such as the standard,
stubby, and offset. An important rule to remember in the use of screwdrivers is to use
the right size for the right screw. Too big a size damages the slot of the screw and may
even cause the screw to break. Too small a size will dent the screwdriver and also
damage the slot of Philips screws
Pliers - designed for gripping the holding small parts in electronic servicing, assembly
and troubleshooting
Side-cutting pliers - these are used mainly for gripping, bending, cutting small
electronic components’ terminal or wire. When this pliers is provided with insulated
handles, it is also called electrician’s pliers
Long-nosed pliers - these are manufactured either straight or bent. They are used for
holding very small parts and for positioning in hard-to-get-at place. They are also very
useful in making small loops or rings out of wires. This is sometimes called needle-
nosed pliers. The bent kind is also known as crooked-nosed pliers
Diagonal-cutting pliers- or simply diagonals are useful in cutting excess terminals of
components after soldering them in the printed circuit board
Nipper-type diagonal cutter- used for precise cutting of components’ terminal. This
type of pliers is used where accuracy is a factor in cutting the excess leads of
components soldered in the printed circuit board

What’s New
Having a new hand tool and knowing how to use or operate it, is not enough. Hand
tools and equipment are expensive. It is very important that you know how to prevent it
from being damaged or destroyed. Keeping hand tools to its useful state you need to
maintain it regularly by cleaning or storing it in proper storage.
What is It
Maintaining Tools
To avoid accidents in the work place due to incorrect use of hand tools, it is a
must that you understand the proper use of these tools. Study and practice proper
use and maintenance of tools to prolong their life span and of course to avoid
accidents due to improper or misuse of such tools.
Proper Use, Maintenance and Storage Tools
The use of safety hand tools should be a key component of most school safety
programs.An understanding of the hand tool’s intended use and environment,
combined with proper tool selection, maintenance and storage, will greatly reduce the
risk of harmful accidents.
The following are guidelines maintaining and storing tools.

 Keep hand tools clean and free from ferrous or other contaminants.
 Do not use hand tools in direct contact with acetylene, due to the
possible ormation of explosive acetyl ides, especially in the presence of moisture.
38
 During normal use, all pliers and screwdrivers will progressively develop
some damage to the striking faces of screwdrivers or the cutting edge and
striking end of pliers. As part of the normal operating and safety
procedures, these tools should be returned to the workshop, as with steel tools,
to have the facesand heads redressed. This is essential to prevent eye damage
resulting from chips detaching from the item during use.
 Do not used hand tools fitted with wooden handles in places where the
handles may dry out and shrink. This will increase the risk of the
handle breaking or the head becoming loose.
 Tools are designed for specific use. As with any tool. In addition to the
probability that the tool will be damaged, this is a dangerous practice for the
safety of the operator.
 The accepted standards of safety and maintenance for common steel hand
tools must also be adopted with non-sparking hand tools, in addition to any
specific recommendations resulting from the alloys used.
 When sharpening hand tools, follow normal safety procedures, such as the
provision of eye and face protection, adequate extraction and dust collecting
facilities.
Specifically, some tools require special care and maintenance due to their
features and frequent use in any electronics or electrical job. Additional care
and maintenance must be observed to the following:
Soldering iron
 Always clean the tip before and after using.
 Do not wash the tip just to speed up its cooling process after using it.
It might damage the heating element and corrode the tip.
Desoldering tool
 Keep it in good condition by cleaning its inside and apply a small
amount of oil regularly.
 Avoid direct contact of the soldering iron’s tip to the tip of the
desoldering tool when doing desoldering work.
tip
Electric drills
These are tools that are used to bore holes in metals, wood, plastic or PCB
in the process of electronic projects assembly. The most common of these are the
mini drill powered from 12V DC voltage and the standard electric drill that can be
39
connected directly to the 220 V AC power line
Chuck
jaw
Before using a drill, be sure to tighten the chuck jaw and secure the drill bit
properly. The materials to be bored and the drill bit must be at 90 degrees angle to
achieve efficient boring operation.
General requirements for tools and equipment maintenance include:
 Obtaining a copy of the maintenance schedule recommended by the manufacturer

 Ensuring that maintenance is performed as required
 Ensuring that the person(s) performing the maintenance are competent
(e.g. licensed mechanic)
 Retaining records of maintenance/service conducted
Specifying who is responsible for overseeing equipment maintenance and where the
records are kept
 Set up a system for removal and tagging of damaged or defective tools and equipment
PROPER STORAGE OF TOOLS, PARTS, AND EQUIPMENT

To ensure that tools and equipment remain in good condition and last for a long
time, store them properly. Properly stored tools and equipment will be easy to
find when needed and are less likely to be lost.
Good practices include:

 Parts should be properly stored and labeled (Figure 1).
 Tools should be properly placed on the board, and labeled (Figure 2).
Consider drawing the shapes of the tools on the board so that they always
get put back in the same position.
 Use bins for storing small parts (Figure 3).
 Consider making an individual (or individuals) responsible for the good
maintenance of tools and parts.
