Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies


Have you ever thought running your own business? Entrepreneurship has
brought great success to some, but it's not a career path for all. Do you think you
can handle the stress and hard work that go with running a small business
enterprise?
The key to succeed in a small business enterprise is your
entrepreneurial ability to produce the desired results. Before embarking on your first
business, it's worth spending some time evaluating your own preparedness for
entrepreneurship. Try to examine your own personality and compare it with the
Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies (PECs) of a successful entrepreneur. Ask
yourself if you are ready to enter into the world of business. If your answer is yes,
take this reminder: Successful entrepreneurs continuously develop and
improve their PECs.

Environment and Market

One of your greatest dreams in life is to become a successful


entrepreneur. As a person, you are capable of developing your character and
personality and how to respond to some business challenges and
opportunities. You can make things happen by identifying the opportunities
around you. You may ask yourself these questions: What do people need?
What products and services are available in the market today? Can they be
improved? How are they made or delivered? Can things be done better?
cheaper? faster? cleaner? Can a product which is used for specific purpose
be also used for some other purposes?
You slowly find answers to these questions as you decide to do the
first step in launching a business enterprise. Be cautious however, that you
should develop a habit of identifying opportunities around you. Only then, you
will find the activity both exciting and easy.

Lesson 1 Needs and Wants of People
Everyone has his or her own needs and wants. However, people have
different concepts of needs and wants.

Needs in business are important

things that every individual cannot do without in a society. These include:


1. Basic commodities for consumption
2. Clothing and other personal belongings,
3. Shelter, sanitation and health
4. Education and relaxation
Basic needs are essential to every individual so he/she may be able to
live with dignity and pride in the community of people. These needs can
obviously help you generate business ideas.
Wants are desires, luxury and extravagance that signify wealth and an
expensive way of living. Wants or desires are considered above all the basic
necessities of life. Some examples are the eagerness or the passion of every

23

individual which are non- basic needs like; fashion accessories, shoes,
clothes, travelling around the world, eating in an exclusive restaurant;
watching movies, concerts, plays, having luxurious cars, wearing expensive
jewelry, perfume, living in impressive homes, and others.
Needs and wants of people are the basic indicators of the kind of
business that you may engage into because it can serve as the measure of
your success. Some other good points that you might consider in business
undertakings are the kind of people, their needs, wants, lifestyle, culture and
tradition, and social orientation that they belong.
Lesson 2 Generating ideas for business
Here are some ways by which you may generate possible ideas for business.
1. Examine the existing goods and services. Are you satisfied with
the product? What do other people who use the product say about it?
How can it be improved? There are many ways of improving a product
from the way it is made to the way it is packed and sold? You can also
improve the materials used in crafting the product. In addition, you
introduce new ways of using the product, making it more useful and
adaptable to the customers many needs. When you are improving the
product or enhancing it, you are doing an innovation. You can also do
an invention by introducing an entirely new product to replace the old
one.
Business ideas may also be generated by examining what goods and
services are sold outside by the community. Very often, these
products are sold in a form that can still be enhanced or improved.
2. Examine the present and future needs. Look and listen to what the
customers, institution, and communities are missing in terms of goods
and services. Sometimes, these needs are already obvious and felt at
the moment. Other needs are not that obvious because they can only
be felt in the future, in the event of certain developments in the
community. For example, a town will have its electrification facility in
the next six months. Only by that time will the entrepreneur could think
of electrically- powered or generated business such as xerox copier,
computer service, digital printing, etc.
24

3. Examine how the needs are being satisfied. Needs for the products
and services are referred to as market demand. To satisfy these
needs is to supply the products and services that meet the demands of
the market. The term market refers to whoever will use or buy the
products or service, and these may be people or institutions such as
other businesses, establishments, organizations, or government
agencies.
There is a very good business opportunity when there is absolutely no
supply to a pressing market demand.
Businesses or industries in the locality also have needs for goods and
services. Their needs for raw materials, maintenance, and other
services such as selling and distribution are good sources of ideas for
business.
4. Examine the available resources around you. Observe what
materials or skills are available in abundance in your area. A business
can be started out of available raw materials by selling them in raw
form and by processing and manufacturing them into finished products.
For example, in a copra-producing town, there will be many coconut
husks and shells available as waste products. These can be
collected and made into coco rags/doormat and charcoal bricks and
sold profitably outside the community.
A group of people in your neighborhood may have some special skills
that can be harnessed for business. For example, women in the
Mountain Province possess loom weaving skills that have been passed
on from one generation to the next generation. Some communities
there set up weaving businesses to produce blankets, as well as
decorative items and various souvenir items for sale to tourists and
lowland communities.
Business ideas can come from your own skills. The work and
experience you may have in agricultural arts, industrial arts, home
economics, and ICT classes will provide you with business
opportunities to acquire the needed skills which will earn for you extra
income, should you decide to engage in income-generating activities.

25

With your skills, you may also tinker around with various things in your
spare time. Many products were invented this way.
5. Read magazines, news articles, and other publications on new
products and techniques or advances in technology. You can pick
up new business ideas from Newsweek, Readers Digest, Business
Magazines, Go Negosyo, KAB materials, Small- industry Journal. The
Internet serves as a library where you may browse and surf on
possible businesses. It will also guide you on how to put the right
product in the right place, at the right price, at the right time.
Listing of possible businesses to set up in an area may also be
available from banks or local non-government organizations.
Lesson 3 Selecting the Right Idea
Once you have embarked on identifying the business
opportunities, you will eventually see that there are many possibilities
that are available for you. It is very unlikely that you will have enough
resources to pursue all of them at once. Which one will you choose?
You have to select the most promising one from among
hundreds and one ideas. It will be good to do this in stages. In the
first stage, you screen your ideas to narrow them down to about five
choices. In the next stage, trim down the five choices to two options.
In the final stage, choose between the two and decide which business
idea worth pursuing.
In screening your ideas, examine each one in terms of the
following factors:
1. How much capital is needed to put up the business?
2. How big is the demand for the product? Do many people need this
product and will continue to need it for a long time?
3. How is the demand met? Who are processing the products to meet
the need (competition or demand)? How much of the need is now
being met (supply)?
4. Do you have the background and experience needed to run this
particular business?
5. Will the business be legal, not going against any existing or
foreseeable government regulation?
26

6. Is the business in line with your interest and expertise?


Your answers to these questions will be helpful in screening
which ones from among your many ideas are worth examining further
and worth pursuing.

Lesson 4 Environmental Scanning


There is a need to conduct environmental scanning to identity
the needs and wants of people, the niche for your business mission,
and to give attention to trends and issues. This may also serve as an
evaluation of the type of the entrepreneurial activity appropriate in the
community.

Environmental scanning is defined as a process of gathering,


analyzing, and dispensing information for tactical or strategic purposes.
The environmental scanning process entails obtaining both factual and
subjective information on the business environments in which a
company is operating.

Environment in the community can be viewed according to its


technological, political, economic, and social aspects. For example, in
the past, people in the community used personal computers but the
transmission of development in terms of technology was interrupted
because people were not satisfied with what they have today. They
still look for the changes in their life and the corresponding in their
environment.
As a future entrepreneur, you must be well-versed in this kind
of advancement and progression of your environment particularly in
technology so as to secure the success of your future business. Always
think of something new, something novel, authentic, reinvent the
27

existing ones, and create your new version of goods/products, and


services. For instance, your own hair straightening is herbal, while in
the other salons it is made of synthetic chemicals. This kind of changes
being made will effect the existing principles in business and industries
that can be easily adapted
products/services

to the changes in producing

to meet the

the

needs and wants of people in the

community.

FIRM UP Your Understanding


In generating business idea, you should first identify what type of
business is suited to your business idea. You should analyze and scan the
potential environment, study the marketing practices and strategies of your
competitors, analyze the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and the
Threats in your environment to ensure that the products/goods and services
you are planning to offer will be patronized within the easy reach by your
target markets/consumers.

Bear in mind these simple rules for successful SWOT analysis.

Be realistic about the strengths and weaknesses of your


business when conducting SWOT analysis.
SWOT analysis should distinguish between where your business
is today, and where it could be in the future.
SWOT should always be specific. Avoid any grey areas.
Always apply SWOT in relation to your competition i.e. better
than or worse than your competition.
Keep your SWOT short and simple. Avoid complexity and over
analysis
SWOT is subjective.

28

DEEPEN Your Understanding


People keep on searching for new things, new trends, and new
issues. For these reasons, an entrepreneur hurriedly responds to these
needs and wants of people.
As generations come and go, another set of new trends will
come or will exist. In order to adapt to the rapid changes in the
business environment, the existing industries need to improve their
products and services. But how can you generate business ideas with
those strong competitors? There are three main sets of decisions that
you need to make - what to produce, how to produce, and how to
share or sell out the product to the market.
Activity 1 Mini survey
Directions: Conduct a mini survey in your immediate community. Gather
pertinent data on population across age brackets as suggested in the matrix
below. Opposite each age group, indicate their probable needs and wants.

INFORMATION SHEET 1.2


AC-DC POWER SUPPLY

A power supply is the heart of all


electronic equipment. It converts AC
input power from grid line to DC
output voltage (AC-DC). It supplies
the desired voltage and current in a
circuit. Without these, all electronic
equipment will not function at all.

37

A basic power supply consists of three basic stages: the power


transformer stage, rectifier stage, and filter stage. If there is a need to
regulate the output voltage, a regulator circuit is added.

Block Diagram of AC-DC Regulated Power Supply

Transformer stage
In order to reduce the 220 volts/60 Hz power supply at our home,
there is a need for a step-down transformer. Most electronic circuits require
a low-voltage power supply in Direct Current (DC) form. The primary and
secondary voltage, current and power rating of a transformer is important
thing to consider.
Note that secondary voltage indicates the rated voltage. When the
secondary winding of a transformer has no load, the measured voltage
must be 10% higher than its rated voltage. This is the allowance for the
voltage drop when loaded.
Types of Rectifier Circuit
There are two types of rectifier, Half Wave Rectifier and the Full Wave
Rectifier. Under a full wave rectifier, there are two types, the Center-tapped
and the Bridge Rectifier.
1. Half Wave Rectifier Circuit
One rectifier diode D1 and one load resistor RL are needed to
conduct one alteration in every cycle of small AC input.

38

Schematic Diagram of a Half-Wave Rectifier

2. Full-Wave Center-Tapped Rectifier Circuit


This type of circuit requires a center-tapped transformer, two
rectifier diodes, and a load resistor (RL). Each of the diode supplies
one-half the DC load current.

Schematic Diagram of a Full-Wave Center-Tapped Rectifier circuit

3. Full-Wave Bridge Type Rectifier Circuit

Schematic Diagram of a Full-Wave Bridge Type Power Supply

39

The full-wave bridge type rectifier circuit uses four rectifier diodesD1,
D2, D3, D4 and a load resistor (RL). A center-tapped transformer is not
necessary in this circuit. This circuit can deliver a higher current range to
the load because all of the cycles are consumed by the four diodes.
The operation of this rectifier circuit is different from the half-wave
and full-wave center tapped. The conduction of AC voltage starts from
Line-A going to Line-B.
Conduction of Diode in Full-Wave Bridge Type Rectifier Circuit
First Conduction
The negative half-cycle will be conducted to the cathode of diode D1,
and then thru the RL it will conduct to the cathode of diode D4 goes to LineB. In this case D1 and D4 are conducting.

First Conduction in a Full Wave Bridge Type Rectifier Circuit

Second Conduction
The positive half-cycle will be conducted to the anode of diode D2 and
then thru the RL, it will conduct to the anode of diode D3 goes to Line-B.,
thru the RL and going to conduct to the anode of diode D3 then Line-B. In
this case D2 and D3 are conducting.

Second Conduction in a Full Wave Bridge Type Rectifier Circuit

40

Characteristics of a Full-Wave Bridge Type Power Supply


a. Expensive
b. Needs a lower value of capacitance
c. Needs four rectifier diodes
Filter Stage
This stage of the power supply smoothen the pulsating DC output
voltage of rectifier circuit by reducing the amount of ripple voltage. It also
provides the charge voltage for the load while the rectifier diode is not
conducting.

Basic Methods of Filtering
1. Simple Capacitor in Parallel
You can connect as many electrolytic capacitors in parallel as you
want in order to increase the amount of capacitance causing good
filtering effects to DC output. This is used for high current applications.
The only disadvantage is that it will occupy a bigger space.

Placing additional
capacitor in the output.

2. Filter with RC Circuit


This circuit is actually a resistor in series with the positive line
together with two bypass capacitors C1 and C2. It is good in lowering the
DC voltage output.

41

3. Filter with Inductor


This circuit has a good filtering effect to the pulsating DC output of
the rectifier. It uses minimal value of capacitance and it is good in low
current and high current applications. The only disadvantage is that
the inductor in series with the positive line takes up big space in
mounting it in the PCB.
The swing of inductance
causes the pulsating DC to
be filtered into its purest
DC form

INFORMATION SHEET 1.3


PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD OF AC-DC POWER SUPPLY
A Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is a copper clad designed (derived from
components connection on schematic diagram), etched and bored to which
components are inserted into the hole (substrate side) and soldered (copper
side) to form its circuit connection. Its main purpose is to reduce the space
and to troubleshoot easily when problem arises.
The copper clad has conductors that are thin strips of copper, usually
bonded to a baseboard called substrate. The two very common substrate
materials used in printed circuit are the phenolic and epoxy plastic.
Copper

Substrate

Copper Clad

PCB Etching is a process where unnecessary copper is removed to


leave the individual tracks or connections of the circuit. Buckets, bubble
tanks, and spray machines are tools to do different ways of etching but most
firms currently use high pressure conveyors spray equipment. Spray etching
in fast Ammoniacal etching solutions can etch 55 microns of copper a
minute and less than 40 seconds to etch a standard 1 oz, 35 micron circuit
board.

Copper side of manufactured PCB

Many different chemical solutions can be used to etch circuit boards


ranging from slow controlled speed etches used for surface preparation to
the faster etches used for etching the tracks. Some are best used in
horizontal spray process equipment while others are best used in tanks.
Enchants for PTH work have to be selective and be non-aggressive to tin /
tin lead plating, which is used as the etch resists. Copper etching that is
normally exothermic requires high speed etching to carry out solution
cooling. This is normally done by placing titanium water cooling coils into
enchant. Almost all etching solutions liberate toxic corrosive fumes.
Extraction is highly recommended. All enchants are corrosive and toxic
mainly due to the high metal content. Personal Protective Equipment (P.P.E.)
must always be used. Used solutions should always be disposed properly so
that it cannot pollute local sewage works and rivers.
43

Manufacturing Printed Circuit Board


In PCB designing, we should not focus only on the size of the
pathways linking to the other component, but also on the types, kinds, and
characteristics of the component. Here are the other design factors needed:
1. PCB size and shape. The PCB must be big enough for the entire
component to be mounted where it is anticipated.
2. Position of the Terminal. Input, output, and supply voltage should
be placed near the border to make troubleshooting or minor repair
easier.
3. High Temperature Dissipation. Too much heat is the number one
problem of all components. Bigger space is needed so that heat
sink (absorb heat from the active component) can be provided to
the component. This will protect the component from burning up.
4. Accessibility of Components. Those component that is adjustable
or variable (example: potentiometer, trimmer resistor or capacitor)
should be placed near the border to make the troubleshooting or
minor repair easier.
5. Space for Bolt and Nut. The designer should place an allowance
space for mounting the PCB with bolt and nut in securing the
entire board to the chassis.
Different Types of Circuit Should be Grouped according to its
Application. This will enhance the circuit operation and will prevent it from
distortion generated by other circuits. This is the reason why the circuit of
the power supply is far from the audio circuit.

Printed circuit board etching


It is the removal of unnecessary portion or layer of conductive
material (that is copper) bonded to an insulating base called substrate.

49

5. After 10 - 15 minutes, check the PCB if all the parts needed to be


removed are totally etched (using the two popsicle sticks in hauling).
If there are still unnecessary copper, return it into the plastic basin
filled with ferric chloride and check it again after 3 5 minutes.
6. Haul the PCB from the plastic basin and wash with running water to
remove the remaining etching solution and other residues.
7. Dry PCB with a clean piece of cloth.
8. Pour a little amount of lacquer thinner on a clean dry piece of cloth
and wipe the markings of the permanent marker in the copper clad.
(Note: In doing this, you should still wear surgical gloves.)
9. Aided by bright light, inspect the PCB for possible hairline break or
short. If there is a hairline path between the copper conductors, cut it
by a knife or cutter. If there is a break between the copper conductors,
solder it.

10. Apply plastic varnish to the newly etched PCB to prevent corrosion or
rust, and let it dry for a couple of minutes.

Techniques to correct PCB Hairline Break or Short


A. Hairline Break. It is an open copper foil in the Printed Circuit
Board. Most of the time, this is due to improper PCB designing or
etching. To eliminate the hairline break, just place a hook up wire
and solder it.
50

B. Hairline Short in the PCB Conductor. It arises if the Printed


Circuit Board designing or etching is done improperly. To
eliminate the hairline short, you should cut it with a knife.

5S
5s is a set of techniques used in the industry that could provide
standard approach to good housekeeping within the school compound. In
industry, this can increase production, improves quality, reduces costs,
maximize and value the time, improves safety and morale to which could
also happen to school. Practicing 5s could make the school more conducive
place of learning and improves character of students as well.
Components of 5s
SORT : Identify and separate necessary items from the unnecessary by:
Segregating useful from non-useful items; Recycling items; Disposing
properly non-useful items (bio-degradable or non-biodegradable)
Procedures:
STEP 1: Look around your workplace with your colleagues. Discover
and identify items which are unnecessary to your work. Start with
a RED TAG CAMPAIGN. Decide the maximum number of any type
of item to be retained. Then dispose ALL unnecessary items.
STEP 2: A Disposal Notice with a date can be done to an item that
you cannot decide if it is necessary or not, and set the item aside.
After a period of time, check if no one needed the item. If no one
needed the item, disposal can be done.

SYSTEMATIZE: Neat placement and identification of needed items by:
Studying the use of items and the frequency of their use; Considering
space or location for storing the things needed to be kept and to be
disposed; Making safety the priority.
Procedures:
STEP 1: Make sure that all unnecessary items are eliminated from your
workplace. Then think of what things should be put where, taking
into account the flow of your work.
STEP 2: Put most frequently needed items close to the user, so as to
minimize the movement of the person. Things which are not so often
used could be placed slightly further away.
You can make a plan with your colleagues based on these principles and
locate things accordingly.

OPERATION OF AN ELECTRIC FAN, PARTS AND FUNCTIONS
Operation of an electric fan
Electric Fan is an air moving machine used to cool with an AC
motor connected to the 60 Hz power source which converts electrical
energy to mechanical energy in order to generate a moving air. It is a
power driven machine capable of providing high air flow parallel to the
axis of the motor shaft where an axially mounted impeller or fan blade
agitates the air. The air velocity/delivery of the electric fan is
controlled by a mechanical speed selector switch for old models and
electronically controlled speed selector switch for new models. Timer is
also included for fully automatic operations.

BLENDER
A blender is

a motorized small kitchen


appliance that blends, chops,
and grates food.
a handy electrical gadget that
makes chopping and mixing
food easier.
a liquidizer or kitchen appliance
used to mix ingredients or make
puree.
a stationary, upright electrical
device which is distinguished
from a hand-powered or electric
mixer that may be used for
similar purposes.

How a blender operates


A blade inside a jar is connected to a motor shaft inside the unit. The
blade speed is controlled by varying electric current at the motor using one
or more switches.
Blenders are used both at home and commercial kitchens for various
purposes:
to crush ice in drinks;
to make smooth pures of semi-solid ingredients such as
cooked vegetables and meat;
to reduce small solids such as spices and seeds to powder
or nut butters;
to blend mixtures of powders, granules, and/or liquids
thoroughly; and
to help dissolve solid into liquid.
87

Parts of a blender

88

Parts and Functions of a Blender

Blending container (jar) is made of glass, plastic, or stainless


steel, and often has graduated markings for approximate
measuring purposes.
Lid is at the top of the container in order to prevent ingredients
from spill out during operation. The fill cap is a removable insert
that allows more items to be added to the jar without removing the
entire lid.
Blade assembly is located at the bottom which could be removed
for cleaning purposes. In cases where the blades are removable,
the container should have an o-ring between the body of the
container and the base to seal both and prevent the contents from
leaking.
Base is where the container rests upon which contains a motor for
turning the blade assembly and has controls on its surface.
Selector switch is used to control the speed of the motor. It
comes in different speed. Modern blenders offer a number of
possible speeds.
The power train of a blender (motor). Is a fan-cooled electric
motor which is secured into the housing by way of vibration
dampeners and a small output shaft penetrates the upper housing
and meshes with the blade assembly.

INFORMATION SHEET 2.1


Procedure and Techniques in Troubleshooting an ElectronicallyControlled Domestic Appliance
Electric Fan (ECEF)/ Blender
For complete detailed information of domestic appliance, a service
manual must be provided for every brand/ model/ type. However, you can
use the information that follows as guide as you diagnose faults and test
parts of ECEF and blender.
Troubleshooting Guide
1. Conduct a quick diagnosis of the trouble symptom and repair the
defective set in the shortest possible time. Do not troubleshoot an
electric fan/ blender unless you have determined the fault. Trace the
fault from the mechanical section or electrical circuit section.
2. When
troubleshooting
integrated
circuits
(ICs)
in
the
electrical/electronic circuit section, do not remove the IC from the
PCB. Secure a circuit diagram from the manufacturer to help you
identify the function of the IC. Consider the pin out of the IC.
3. When troubleshooting in the electrical/ electronic circuit section,
prior to pre-testing, consider voltage measurement on components
first before removing it for testing. If the measured voltage is normal,
the component might be the cause of the problem. Either way, if the
measured voltage is not normal (increased or decreased) the
preceding circuit/ components might be the cause.
4. If the trouble symptom is caused by aging components, the defective
component is usually one of them. However, in high-power-handling
circuits, a defective component may cause other components to
malfunction.
5. Be familiar with the usual defects of components. (e.g. capacitors
usually become leaky, shorted or open/ resistor increase their
resistance when they become defective/ semi-conductors such as
transistors usually become open or shorted)
6. Dont replace an opened fuse or burned resistor unless you have
corrected the trouble.
7. Always suspect a faulty contact on mechanical switch circuit rather
than defective electronic components.
8. When measuring resistance in the circuit, make sure that the circuit if
OFF and power is not being supplied in the circuit, and that stored
charges in capacitors are properly discharged. Failure to do so can
damage the volt-ohm-milliameter (VOM) and the circuit due to the low
resistance of the ohmmeter.
9. While using a VOM for in-circuit resistance measurement, always
exchange the setting of positive and negative probes. Take the higher
meter reading with the approximate resistance.
10. Use soldering irons with the proper power rating to prevent the
components and the circuit board from being overheated and
96

damaged. Soldering iron tips should be cleaned and preferably slim.


11. Use proper tools and soldering aids when troubleshooting PCB.
Ground the soldering iron to avoid damaging ICs and transistors.
12. Dry solder joints are hard to detect. However, when they are found or
suspected, remove the components from the PCB; then, file or clean
the leads and solder the joints back.
Reheating dry joints with a new soldering lead is another remedy.
When re-soldering, make sure you do not overheat the components.
Overheating the PCB may cause the copper layer on it to warp and
peel off.
13. USE Personal Protective Equipment.

Copy and fill-up the given format on a sheet of paper.
103

Procedure in Pre-Testing an ECEF


1. Determine the specific problem.
a. Ask the owner/operator of the electric fan of what is the
problem/ complain.
b. Request for the detail of the problem (how the problem do
happen and how long it has been observed).
2. Make sure that you know how to operate an ECEF. If not, review the
operating manual as well as service manual (if available) of the unit
prior to its testing and operation
a. If you have worked on the same unit before, test out to see if it
operates in the same way.
b. Determine the last time it has been modified/repaired.
c. You must recognize the problem/ complain of the owner to the
unit.
3. Perform visual inspection into the unit.
a. Prepare the tools needed and remove the cover ready for
inspection.
b. Apply careful physical inspection on the parts/components.
(Look for burned and broken components; Inspect for loose
connections or broken wires; Scratches or sign of misuse)
4. For safety reason, check the AC plug of the unit with an ohmmeter
and record your findings. With this, you can formulate a diagnosis.
5. Inform the owner about the findings of conducted pre-testing
procedure.
6. Record your findings for your reference to troubleshooting/ repairing.
Precautionary Measures in Performing Pre-Testing of an ECEF
1. To avoid the electrical shock, wear rubberized cotton gloves. Keep
your hands dry at all times.
2. Discharge large capacitors by connecting a jumper wire across their
two conducting terminals.
3. Observe the polarity of the components when replacing them.
4. Dont replace an opened fuse or burned resistor unless you have
corrected the trouble.
5. When replacing the resistor (SCR/TRIAC), the replacement should
have the same current rating.
6. To avoid short circuit to nearby components, use needle-pointed
probes for better contact.
7. Use VOM accordingly.
