If one terminal of a battery is connected to the frame of the equipment in which it's used, the connection is generally made with the ground, and this is called a ground connection. It refers to the reference point from which all other electrical voltages are measured.

Star-star connection of transformer?

Star Star TransformerStar Star Transformer is formed in a 3 phase transformer by connecting one terminal of each phase of individual side, together. The common terminal is indicated by suffix 1 in the figure below. If terminal with suffix 1 in both primary and secondary are used as common terminal, voltages of primary and secondary are in same phase. That is why this connection is called zero degree connection or 0o - connection.If the terminals with suffix 1 is connected together in HV side as common point and the terminals with suffix 2 in LV side are connected together as common point, the voltages in primary and secondary will be in opposite phase. Hence, Star Star Transformer connection is called 180o - Connection, of three phase transformer.Vikram Meena


Why is Earthing provided in the electrical wiring of a builiding?

The chassis of electrical equipment is typically connected to the Earth through the Ground (Earth) terminal of the electrical outlet. This is why building wiring should (or must, in many areas) include an on-site Earth ground connection. Earthing of equipment chassis is a safety measure taken to help prevent electrical shock in the event of an insulation failure or a short circuit. If there were no chassis-ground connection, a hot wire which accidentally comes in contact with the chassis could cause the user to get a serious shock. If there's no Earth connection available, use a GFCI outlet to help prevent electrocution.

How many line conductors are installed between the switch and light fixture?

One. A typical "two way" ON-OFF light switch is a Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) switch with two terminals. It is wired in series with the fixture: that is, the power circuit is routed from the breaker to one side of the switch. The other side of the switch is connected to the "phase" or "power" terminal of the fixture. In a 115VAC single phase circuit, the other terminal of the fixture is connected to neutral. A "three way" switch circuit consists of two switches in different locations, each of which is a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch with three terminals. A typical use would have one switch at the top and the other at the bottom of a set of stairs. For the sake of clarity, we can label the "common" terminal on a SPDT switch the "C" terminal. This terminal is internally connected to one of the other two terminals, call them "A" and "B", depending of the position of the switch. A three way switch is connected with the circuit breaker connected to the "C" terminal on either switch. Conductors connect the "A" terminal on one switch the the "A" terminal on the other switch and the "B" terminal on one switch the the "B" terminal on the other switch. The remaining "C" terminal is connected to the "phase" or "power" terminal of the fixture. The other terminal of the fixture is connected to neutral. Note that, in either case, there is no neutral wire connected to the switch. Ground conductors do connect to the chassis of the switch box and the fixture, but they do not carry current and do not affect the operation of the circuit.

What is the different between series and parallel connection?

In parallel connection all the positive terminals are connected with positive of the source and all the negative terminals are connected to negative of the source. Whereas in series connection one positive terminal is connected to the negative of another, like wise it goes on and finally the positive end is connected to the negative of the source.
