Is Mercury electric?

Liquid mercury can conduct electricity, it's what makes mercury thermostats work. As for solid mercury, it conducts electricity in solid phase as all metals do.


Is network solid a poor conductor of electricity?

network solids do not conduct electricity in the solid or liquid phase, but yes in the aqueous phase


What is a phase used for?

Phase converters are mostly used to convert single phase electricity into multiple phases or to convert multiple phases into one. They are usually installed to provide three phase electricity where an individual may not get it otherwise.


What is the definition of converting electricity?

Electricity is converted from High voltage, 3 phase on the grid to low voltage single phase for domestic use.


What type of substance can conduct electricity in the liquid but not solid phase?

Most ionic solids cannot conduct electricity in the solid phase. They only do so in the liquid phase. While they are solid, the ions in the ionic solid are fixed in their lattice so cannot move to conduct electricity whereas in the liquid phase, the ions are free and mobile and can act as charge carriers for electricity.

What year did Nikola Tesla invent electricity?

Nikola Tesla did not invent electricity, but he did come up with the poly phase AC system which the world runs on today. I believe he had the notion in his head long before a formal patent application was applied for. I believe 1887 he started work in his new laboratory and within a few months was able to apply patents on the entire poly phase system. (single phase, two phase, and three phase wiring)


Who works with electricity?

Indirectly all of us work with electricity. Every time you use an appliance, make a phone call, on ad infinitum you are some how working with electricity.


Why would three phase be used instead of single phase?

Three phase electricity is used instead of single phase for industrial situations. Industries use three phase electricity instead of single phase to operate electric motors driving heavy machinery. Three phase electrical motors produce more power from the same amount of electricity and maintain steadier speed. Small portable motors such as drills and mixers use single phase. Motors used around the house are single phase. Motors used to run large industrial machines use three phase.

Will a diesel generator producing single phase work on three phase electricity supply?

No, you can not get three phase power from a single phase generator no matter what internal connections you use. On the other hand you can obtain a single phase supply from a three phase generator by using any two phase legs as a source. <<>> I single phase generator can produce three phase by using a converter but its not efficient and does not work very well. <<>> Well there is an another way too. but one has to be precautious in that...simply short the three phases of the electricity supply n feed them with a single phase of the generator...now when the mains is bak make sure the short phases are separated again and then powered up otherwise you will be hearin blasts here n there...use ATS for automatic switching that gives you automatic transfer and can be programmed when to short and when not to..
