2-Prong & 3-Prong Plug Wiring Worksheets

Welcome to the 2-prong and 3-prong plug wiring worksheet with free printable pdfs. In this worksheet, we will explore the differences between 2-prong and 3-prong plugs, their wiring configurations, and the safety considerations that need to be considered when working with electrical appliances.

2-Prong and 3-Prong Plug Wiring Worksheet:

Electrical appliances need a power source to operate, and plugs are used to connect them to an electrical outlet. There are two types of plugs are commonly used in household appliances: 

1.  The 2-Prong Plug 
2.  The 3-Prong Plug

The 2-Prong Plug:

The 2-prong plug is a type of plug that has two prongs, or metal blades, that are used to connect the appliance to the outlet. This type of plug is also called a non-grounded plug because it does not have a grounding wire.

The 3-Prong Plug:

On the other hand, has three prongs: two blades and one round or U-shaped prong. This third prong is called the grounding prong and is used to connect the appliance to the grounding system of the building's electrical wiring. The grounding prong is a safety feature that helps protect against electric shock and fire hazards.

In this worksheet, we will learn how to wire both 2-prong and 3-prong plugs correctly and safely. We will also discuss the importance of proper wiring and the risks of using faulty or improperly wired plugs. So, let's get started!
