This merit badge workshop is open to any youth in 6th – 12th grade and is designed to help BSA Scouts meet requirements for the Electricity merit badge. We will be covering requirements 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, and 11.
Scouts are responsible for the following pre-requisites: 2, 8, and 9. Requirement 2 requires an electrical home safety inspection of a Scout’s home to be completed. Requirement 8 requires a floor plan wiring diagram to be drawn of a room in the Scout’s house. Requirement 9 requires a Scout to read an electric meter, discuss their family’s electric bill, determine energy costs, and come up with 5 ways their family can conserve energy. If participants do not complete these requirements ahead of time, Scouts must follow up with the counselors before a completed signed blue card will be issued.
