Why increase the amperige in the electrical circuit of a tractor?
why increase the amperage in the electrical circuit of a tractor
Does amperage increase as the number of bulbs in a parallel circuit increase?
Yes.
How many standard lighting outlets on a 20 ampere circuit?
16 outlets or 80% of the total Amperage of the circuit.
What size in amperage circuit breaker should be used for a pool pump?
The sizing of the circuit breaker and hence the wire size to feed the pump are all dependant upon the amperage of the pump. This question can not be answered without that information.
What is power rating of appliances?
Wattage = voltage x amperage. Every appliance in North America is built to work at 120 V, so you have the voltage. The amperage rating is probably written in the microwaves manual if the wattage is not. Remember the amperage you put on a circuit can't be more that 80% of what the wiring is rated for in the branch circuit.

Yes.
What causes a fuse to blow in a dc circuit?
Too much amperage in the circuit. Find what is causing the increase in voltage.
Doubling the resistance in a circuit will increase or decrease amperage?
If voltage remains constant and resistance is increased, the amperage will decrease per Ohm's Law.
Open circuit prevents the movement of what?
amperage
What two things happen when the number of appliances connected to the multiple socket is increased?
The amperage of the circuit increases and the voltage drop across the appliances will tend to increase.
Is 110 volts 10 amps?
Voltage and Amperage are not directly dependent upon each other. Electricity is like water in the way that it "flows". Voltage is analagous to water pressure (like PSI), whereas amperage is analagous to the amount of water actually flowing (like gallons-per-minute). As voltage increases, amperage typically decreases and vice versa. But the actual amperage of a 110 V circuit depends on the device connected to it and how much current it draws. For instance, a 12 amp vaccuum cleaner is gonna draw 12 amps out of a 110 V circuit, whereas a 60 watt light bulb connected to the same circuit is gonna draw about half an amp (amperage=wattage/voltage, or amperage=60/110).
How do you pick the right fusible link?
Fuses are based upon the size of the wire of the circuit that it is to protect. The wire is sized by the amperage of the connected amperage load of the circuit.
Total amperage in a series circuit?
Voltage divided by total resistance will give the current. The resistance is simply the sum of all the individual resistances.
Can you reduce amperage by using thicker wire with a constant voltage?
The amperage flowing through a wire is directly related to the load placed on the circuit, and has nothing to do with wire size, except that a larger wire will carry more amperage. Increasing wire size will not lower amperage but will allow the circuit to carry more amperage if the breaker is also increased in size. No. Ohm's law tells us that V = IR. For a given load, R is constant, and thus the only way to reduce current is to increase voltage.
If the resistance changes in a circuit the amperage will also change?
I=V/R The smaller the resistance the greater the amperage.
What is the difference between a v and an amp?
A volt is the amount of electricity available in the circuit - Picture a pail filled with water An Amp is the rate that electricity travels through the circuit - picture a hole in the pail of water - the rate that water escapes from the pail of water is amperage
