the third pin on an electrical plug it's for grounding. ex. if the equipment get hit by a lighthing electricity will be conducted to the floor trhu the ground wirering to protect the rest of the house.
Yes, gold conducts electricity. In fact, it's an excellent electrical conductor. Coupled with its resistance to corrosion, it finds broad use in modern electronics, to name just one application.
A material that can both conduct and insulate, depending on the electric fields put across it. It has to do with electrons and holes. I only got an answer to this in a third year electrical engineering course... For a good example, check out how a diode works. It conducts when voltage is applied one way and insulates when it's applied another way.
Two points are needed to allow current flow. The third point is necessary for several safety functions.
The third.
Silver is the element that best conducts heat and electricity. Gold, the third most electrically conductive element, is widely used in electronics due to corrosion resistance.
The third terminal connects to earth ground.
Appliances and tool that only have two pin caps (plugs) are built so that they have double insulation. This means that the electrical "hot" parts can not be touched by handling the appliance or tools and the outside shell is completely insulated and isolated from the inside shell of the equipment. Equipment that require a three pin cap (plug) do not have the double insulation and isolation built into the equipment so protection from getting an electrical shock is done by grounding the equipment, that is what the third pin is. It is used strictly for grounding.
Yo, These 3 are the best First = Silver (Ag) Second= Copper (Cu) Third = Gold (Au)
yes
As regards electrical conduction, if the carbon rod is graphite, it's a conductor. If the carbon rod is diamond, it's an insulator. We have to specify the allotrope of carbon used to make the rod to discover whether it's an insulator or conductor.
In the UK the third rail is 750v DC 400amps the Overhead Live Electrical is 25000v AC
First, circuits have devices that are run by electrical energy. Second, a circuits has a source of electrical energy. Third, electrical circuits are connected by conducting.
