Can a ground wire be used as a neutral wire?
No
What devices get a neutral wire?
All devices use two wire, the live and the neutral. These carry the current used by the device. Most devices also have an earth wire for safety, which carries no current until a fault occurs and then the fault current in the earth wire might save someone from being electrocuted.
Is the white wire in an electrical circuit typically used as the neutral or hot wire?
In an electrical circuit, the white wire is typically used as the neutral wire.
Can loose neutral wire effect the operation of Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker?
Yes, a loose neutral wire can effect the operation of Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker.
What position would you find live electrical wire?
You would find a live electric wire, with a neutral and usually also an earth wire, in any place where electricity is used. The wires are colour coded differently in different areas but in Europe live is brown, neutral is blue and earth is green/yellow.
Is the white wire neutral in electrical wiring?
Yes, the white wire is typically used as the neutral wire in electrical wiring.
Is the white wire hot or neutral in the electrical circuit?
In an electrical circuit, the white wire is typically used as the neutral wire, not the hot wire.
What are the names of the three wires in a plug?
The three wires in a plug are typically called live, neutral, and earth wires. The live wire carries the current to the appliance, the neutral wire completes the circuit and carries the current back, and the earth wire is a safety feature to prevent electric shocks.
Why do some wires just have a live and a neutral wire?
The cable to a light bulb (with a plastic bulb holder) in a house, etc, usually has just a live and neutral wire. If a brass or metal bulb holder is used, an earth wire is advised for safety reasons.In the UK, mains power cables and wall sockets are of the three pin types, with the live (bRown wire) to the right, and the neutral (bLue wire) to the left, and the green and yellow striped wire to the earth pin.
What is different netural and ground or earth?
The neutral wire carries current back to the source in a circuit, while the ground or earth wire is used as a safety measure to protect against electric shock. The neutral wire is a current-carrying conductor under normal operation, whereas the ground wire carries no current except during fault conditions.
What are the three wires in a plug called?
The green and yellow is the earth wire The brown is the live wire The blue is the neutral wire A poem to help is: The brown live cow drinks from the blue neutral water and eats the green grass from earth
How do you identify neutral and ground or earth wire means if someone has changed the terminals of wire then how will we identify which one is neutral and which one is earth?
mee too in the same situation. anyone help us out pl.
