What is the amount of electrical pressure in a circuit?
They call that "voltage" or EMF.
What components are placed in an electrical circuit to control the amount of resistance in circuit?
resistors, variable potentiometers
What do a resistor do in a circuit?
A resistor is a device that impedes or limits the flow of electrical current in a circuit. It converts the current's electrical energy into heat (thermal) energy. A resistor reduces the amount of energy in a circuit and pumps it out as a heat.

What does the electrical term amperes mean?
Amperes are units of electrical current. They measure the amount of charge passing a point in a circuit line given a set amount of time.
How power factor helps to improve circuit?
Improving power factor does nothing to improve a circuit. It merely affects the amount of current drawn by the load.
What is RLC throughput?
RLC is a type of electrical circuit that involves a resistor, an inductor and a capacitor. The throughput is the amount of energy travelling through the circuit.
Does using a higher than necessary ampacity in electrical circuits cause a higher electrical meter reading?
No, the electrical meter reads watts by multiplying the voltage and the amperage used in electrical circuits. Using oversize wire does not govern the amperage flow to the load. The load resistance in the circuit is what governs the amount of current that flows through the wire. This current in the load circuit is multiplied by the voltage applied to the circuit at the electrical meter. The product of this multiplication is wattage, multiplied by the amount of time the load is on, is what the electrical utility bill is based on.
What does a Clamp-on ammeter measure?
An ammeter measures the amount of current flowing through an electrical circuit. It measures amperage.
What happens if a circuit has no resistance?
Then the voltage in will equal the voltage out. The purpose of a resistor is to reduce the amount of electrical flow of current. You 'short out' the supply and blow a fuse/circuit breaker.
How does voltage works?
voltage means the amount of electrical energy there is.In electrical engineering and physics there are expressed by (V).so I can say that there are 200V in these circuit. Or 200 voltage of electricity run thought the circuit or copper board as most people call them.
What is a volt metter?
A volt meter is used to detect the presence of voltage, and it also measure the amount of voltage (electrical pressure) in a circuit.
