Best Answer

It depends on the power rating of the saw. If it is a 1 KW (Kilowatt) saw then it will use 1 KWH (Kilowatt hour) of electricity for every hour it is used. This is equivalent to 1 unit of electricity. If it is 500 W (Watt) then it will use half this. If it is 2 KW it will use double this.

Where did thomas Edison invent the elctrical generating system?

When visiting Roselle, New Jersey, I saw a plaque near the Roselle Park train station that says "First village lighted by electricity...". The actual invention may have occurred at or near his home in West Orange, New Jersey, but since he was called the Wizard of Menlo Park, maybe he had a lab there. (Today, Menlo Park is a section of the City of Edison.)


What did people do before electricity was invented?

Electricity wasn't invented; it is a natural phenomenon seen in lightning, the nervous system of every living animal, and so on. Things to make, transmit, store and use electricity were invented. Before those things were invented, people made things that allowed them to live without electricity, such as candles and oil lamps for light, waterwheels and ox drive for powering equipment, fuel-burning stoves for heat, written letters and visits for communications, and so on.


Why is it unsafe to use electric power tools that need extension cable what can you use?

Almost all my life I have used electric power tools with extension cable. I have never found it "unsafe" or ever had any incident with that. - Probably just more garbage coming from 'teachers' who think they know more than those of us who just 'do it' knowledgably and safely !Another AnswerWell, speaking as a 'teacher', I agree that it is quite safe to use an extension cord with a power tool -in fact, that's what extension cords are for and it's probably safer than just using the limited amount of cord permanently connected to the power tool itself. There are some provisos, however; for example, if the power tool has an earth (ground) conductor then so, too, must the extension cord. And the current-carrying capacity of the power cord must equal or exceed that of the power tool. And it's best not to leave the extension cord on the reel due to the resulting increased inductance and lack of cooling. And, of course, there's the obvious safety requirements -don't drill or saw through it, or drape it is liable to become damaged or where people are liable to trip over it, etc.

What is the history of the table saw?

hoaleboi7@aol.com Per Wikipedia.org, the book "Woodworking Machinery, Its Rise, Progress and Construction 1800-1880" claims that the first recorded patent for the circular saw was in 1777 to an Englishman, Samuel Miller. However Miller references a circular saw created in Holland in the 16th or 17th century as an inspiration for his work. Based on this, most believe the concept of using a circular saw blade to cut wood that was pushed into, and towards it, probably developed sometime in the late 1700s or early 1800s. Note, this was obviously before electricity, thus, these early saws, which were the forerunners to table saws, used human power, via foot pedals, or water power to drive the saw blades. This is why many early saw mills were built along rivers to capture water to power a water wheel and saw blade.
