    This document provides information about electrical circuits and solar power systems. It contains a circuit diagram that needs to be labeled with electrical component names. It also includes explanations of how solar power systems work and questions to test comprehension. The key points are: 1. The circuit diagram shows a solar panel, controller, battery, and lamps connected by cables. Current flows from the solar panel through the controller which can direct it to either the battery or lamps. 2. In a solar power system, the solar panel converts sunlight to direct current (DC) which the controller directs to charge the battery or power the lamps. If the sun is shining, current flows from the panel to the lamps. If not, it runs from

    REMEMBER

    We use Simple Present to describe actions or truths. In 3rd person, add ‘S’ or ‘ES’ to the
    verbs.

    WH QUESTIONS

    (Preguntas con WH + verbo To Be = Ser o Estar)

    Preguntas con WH: WHAT (qué o cuál) – HOW (cómo) – WHERE (dónde) – WHEN (cuándo)

    Verbo to be (ser o estar): AM (soy o estoy) – IS (es, está) – ARE (eres o estás; somos o estamos;
    son o están)

    Auxiliar: DO - DOES

    Estructura de la pregúnta: WH + (AM-IS-ARE) + NOUN + COMPLEMENT + ?

    WH + AUXILIAR (DO-DOES) + NOUN + VERB + COMPLEMENT + ?

    EJEMPLO: Where is my boss? Answer: He is in the company.

    EJEMPLO: What does the battery do? ANSWER: it stores energy

    ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT

    1. Do you know these electrical symbols? Label the circuit diagram with the words in the box.

    (8) __________ (1) _lamp________

    (7) ___switch______

    (6) ___terminal______
    ______conductor____

    (5) _____positive__ (4) ____negative____ (3) ____fuse_______

    2. Listen and label the diagram with the words in the box.

    GC-F -005 V. 05
    Solar panel controller

    battery
    cables

    lamps

    3. Listen and match the items with their specifications.

    1 solar panel a) 12V 8W


    2 controller b) DC
    3 battery c) 5A
    4 lamps d) 60W
    5 electrical current e) 12V 100Ah

    4. Work in pairs. Look again at the diagram in 2. Where does the current flow in these three
    situations? Draw arrows.

    Situation 1: The Sun shines. The lamps are on.


    Situation 2: The Sun shines. The lamps are off.
    Situation 3: The Sun doesn't shine. The lamps are on.

    5. Read the manual for the solar panel and check your answers to 4.

    How does the solar power system work? The panel converts the Sun's energy into a DC electric
    current. The current flows to the controller. Then it can flow from the controller to the lamps. Or it
    can flow from the controller into the battery. The battery stores the electricity. The current can
    flow from the battery into the lamps through the controller.

    If the Sun shines, the DC current can flow from the panel, through the controller and into the
    lamps. If the Sun doesn't shine, the current can flow from the battery, through the controller and

    GC-F -005 V. 05
    into the lamps. If the lamps are off, the current can flow from the panel, through the controller,
    and into the battery.

    The controller controls the flow of the current. If the battery is full, the controller stops the flow
    from the panel into the battery. If the battery is empty, the controller stops the flow from the
    battery into the lamps.

    Answer:

    What does the battery store? DC electric current


    When does the controller stop the flow from the battery into the lamps? When the battery is
    empty
    What happen if the sun doesn’t shine? the current can flow from the battery, through the
    controller and into the lamps

    6. Match the words in the box sentences 1-7

    Battery cable controller lamp solar panel electrical current switch

    1 shines a light when the switch is on: lamp


    2 converts the sun’s energy into an electrical current: _____panel solar______.
    3 stores electricity: _____battery_________.
    4 DC is a type of _____electrical current______.

    LISTENING:

    [L =Lecturer; S =Student]
    L: Right. Now let's look at this diagram of the
    circuit, up here. Can you see it clearly? On
    the left, here, you can see a solar panel. OK?
    The solar panel collects the sunlight and
    changes it into electricity. And here, on the
    right, you can see three lamps. These three
    long things. OK? And there, between the
    panel and the lamps, you can see a controller
    and a battery.
    S: Excuse me, sir. Which one is the controller?
    L: Well, the controller's at the top, OK? And
    of course the battery's at the bottom, here,
    below the controller. And finally, you can see
    some electrical cables or wires. The cables
    run from the panel, through the controller,
    into the battery, and also into the lamps.

    [L =Lecturer; S =Student]
    L: OK? So to summarise, here again, these are
    the main parts of the system. A sixty watt
    solar panel; .. . a five amp controller; ...
    a twelve volt one hundred ampere hours
    battery; ... and three twelve volt eight watt
    lamps.
    S: Excuse me, what kind of electrical current is
    it?

    GC-F -005 V. 05
    L: It's a direct current - DC. Is that clear now?
