Best Answer

A cable power or otherwise has no final or beginning resistance unless power is applied. therefore no unswer to the question

Define the thermal resistance of a cable?

No. Conductor resistance is. Cable insulation resistance to ground is inversely proportional to its length. The longer the cable, the more leakage path to ground; therefore, the lower the insulation resistance to ground.


When a multimeter is set to measure resistance?

it determines how well the current flows through the wires. ANSWER: When there is no outside power connected to it. But some power is necessary to read the resistance so the meter battery will supply the current necessary to measure the IR drop and translate that to resistance


What are watts amps and ohms?

ohms is a measure of resistance(R) in a circuit. Watts is a measure of the power(P), in this case lets assume it is the power used by the resistive element (lamp, heater etc). Power(watts)=Current(Amps)x Current(amps) x Resistance(ohms) or Resistance (ohms)=Power(W)/(current x current)


How can you measure the power or voltage of a potato clock?

A voltmeter would measure the voltage. If you measure the voltage drop over a known low resistance you get a kinda-sorta idea of the power available.

Why we go for bus bar riser system instead of cables?

It is done to carry more current at rated power & to reduce the power loss as compared to cable since a bus-bar has more area compared to cable so resistance is less & hence losses are reduced.

What tool can you use to troubleshoot power supply issues measure current resistance or voltage?

multimeter


If voltage and current are proportional why do they increase voltage in powerlines in order to decrease current?

Low current will equal low power losses due to the resistance of the cable. I squared R. (I is transmission current and R is resistance/Metre of cable) by increasing the voltage for the same amount of power the current decreases. Power transmission will take that advantage to transfer less current for the same amount of power.


A measure of how strong a battery or power source is?

A good measure is its internal resistance. If the internal resistance was 1 ohm, the output voltage would fall by 1 volt for every amp of current taken. So - how low is the internal resistance? is a good question to find out how strong the source is.


How many amps is 840watt?

Amps measure current; watts measure power; there is no way to convert between them without knowing more, such as either the voltage or the resistance.


How can you know that power cable need to be replaced?

you check the insulation and it is degraded,hole in it or it does not have a very high ohms of resistance,which means the insulation is bad.
