Abstract


The study aimed to evaluate the condition of instructional facilities used for teaching Electrical Installation and Maintenance Works (EIMW) in Technical Colleges within the Bauchi metropolis. A survey research design was employed, guided by three research questions. The study involved 79 respondents as the population. Data collection utilized a structured questionnaire, validated by experts in electrical technology education with a reliability coefficient of 0.95. Analysis of the collected data utilized frequency, percentage, and standard deviation. The findings revealed that the majority of facilities required for teaching EIMW in Technical Colleges were available, functional, and effectively utilized, with only a few exceptions. Based on these results, it is recommended that additional facilities such as welding/brazing equipment, conduit pipes, and heaters (ovens) be provided to enhance the implementation of the EIMW curriculum.
