Why can you use electrical devices without getting shocked?

To receive a shock from electrical devices you have to become part of the electrical circuit. Most electrical devices come in two categories. One, the device is grounded and the other is the device is double insulated.The grounded devices have their metallic frames grounded. On a short circuit fault this will trip the breaker and isolate the device's fault before you have a chance to ground out the device by touching it.The double insulated device has two covers that protect the user from shock. The double insulation type of protection is usually used on hand held power tools.


What are some methods of using electricity more efficiently?

The manufacturer's electrical design is what causes the device to consume a set rate of electricity. The only thing that a consumer can do to limit the devices electrical consumption is to turn the device off.


What is s device that interferes with the flow of an electrical charge?

You cannot 'slow' the flow of current in a wire. What you can do, however, is to reduce its value, or to limit its upper value. The device that will do this is a resistor. If, by your question, you are asking how to reduce the rate of change in its magnitude, then you can use an inductor.


What wastes more energy leaving your computer on or keep turning it off?
