Do you get charged for having a socket outlet switched on?

In order to be billed for electricity, you have to have a flow of current. your electric meter is not unlike your water meter in this regard, it measures flow rate through it. An outlet that is not plugged in to anything that is on, or an empty socket that normally holds a bulb will not pass current. That means they are technically off. All a switch does is open an electrical circuit. To close a socket circuit you need a bulb. To close an outlet circuit, you need an appliance that is on (another switch may be involved).

What is the Difference between radial connection and ring connection of socket outlet?

In a radial circuit you wire 3 cables (live/hot, neutral and earth) from the board to the first socket, and then loop these cables on from socket to socket till you get to the last socket and you are finished.In a ring circuit, the is an additional set of cables from the last socket back to the board. This increases the load that can be put on the circuit.In my country (Ireland) this is generally not in practice any more, and most circuits are radial circuits.

Why contiunity test reading for lighting and socket outlet must be less than 1 ohm?

You are basically reading the resistance of a small piece of conductor which should be minimal. Depending on the accuracy of your meter a value under 1 ohm, and really much less, is expected if there is continuity. if higher then the meter isn't very good or you have added resistance such as an oxide coating on metal part that increases resistance of the measurement.


How do you change a 110 socket outlet into a 210 socket outlet?

You probably mean to change it to a 240 V outlet... either case, you'll need to run a new wire and install a new breaker.
