What is reverse polarity protection?
All batteries have two terminals, one positive and one negative, and usually they need to be hooked up right for the equipment to work. Some equipment will be damaged if you hook the battery up the wrong way - reverse polarity. Equipment that has reverse polarity protection has something in them which makes them able to stand being hooked up wrong w/o being damaged.
The polarity of an eletromagnet is determined by the?
the way in which the positive & negative terminals on the battery or power supply are attached to the electromagnet. switching the leads from the positive terminal to the negative one, and the negative one to the positive terminal should reverse the polarity of your electromagnet.

What causes a battery to reverse polarity?
Discharging it to 0V (ie. absolutely empty). And not battery, but "cell" (even a small AA or AAA battery is consider a "cell" - think Duracell).Batteries are usually made up of individual cells (like car batteries, RC batteries etc.), and even if not all of them are discharged completely, if even just one cell reverses polarity, it will do irreversible damage to the battery.
What is mean polar?
What is meant by polarity? Answer An electric charge has a polarity of either positive or negative. Also a voltage has a polarity, in that it could be positive or negative, with respect to some other voltage, such as the one at the other end of a battery or electric circuit.
Where is the starters located on a s 10 truck?
There is only one starter per truck. If you follow the positive battery cable from the battery it will lead to the starter.
What keep one special battery from failing out of two on the same truck?
any special battery
Which battery should i use for 1963 Ford Falcon The one i have now doesnt seem strong enough...should i use a truck battery?
a 127 should do the job,Wouldnt recommend a truck battery
When diode is connected to ohmmeter What happens?
A: Depends on meter leads voltage polarity and the diode itself orientation to these polarity. One way is should show a low impedance + to anode Reverse the diode it should be hi impedance
What is a battery method of testing transformer polarities?
You will be able to find out the polarities of the windings. You can just put a digital meter on one winding and then touch the battery to the other side to see which polarity it has.
If alternator is hooked up in reverse polarity what happens?
"If you connected the battery in reverse that will certainly fry the alternator and cause damage to any other polarity sensitive components as well. The alternator is NOT suposed to spark, it charges by by generating alternating current which is converted to direct current through a diode pack known as the rectifier, and the voltage is regulated by some more electronic wizardry called (amazingly enough) a regulator. Normally when alternators go wrong the charging warning light will glow, and you will get the wrong readings from your voltmeter (if your car has one)."
Reversed polarity is when?
In a normal distribution system, one wire is always connected to earth. Reverse polarity occurs when the live and neutral conductors on a system become reversed or 'swapped over'. It's a very dangerous situation with serious safety implications.
