basically electricity rules the world through electrons...it creates the deficiency of electrons in an object(conductor1) which in turn when touched with the other conductor2 results the flow of free electrons from conductor2 to conductor1..analogous to chemical reaction.
the earth surface contains a variety of free electrons moving randomly..
the high voltage line when touches earth, the free electrons start flowing from earth to the high voltage line with a very large number of electrons and high speed..
if the line is thick(valuable size) and if there is some resistance to the flow of electrons then there would be no problem of line breaking but otherwise high speed electrons in very short duration of time when passes through a very low capacity conductor supporting less number of electrons to flow through will heat up the connecting(touching) point of conductor (analogous to welding) and will break it..
any problem.....

What are three sources of power for control circuit?
The Three sources of power for control circuit are dynamic power, short-circuit power and leakage power.
Which is not a type of home circuit?
A three phase motor control circuit.
What are the three basic parts of circuts?
For a circuit, you usually need: * Conducting wires, or some other conductor to carry the current * A current source, for example a battery * A load (something that uses the power) * A switch that lets you disconnect the current flow
Why it is necessary to earth the star point of three phase circuit?
The star or neutral point is earthed at the supply transformer to prevent the system building up a static electric charge in dry weather.
On an 50A circuit should you be able to turn all of three of your electric heaters on at the same time without tripping the main breaker?
Check the amp rating of the heater and do the math. Electric heaters pull A LOT of current, so I'm guessing you'd be near the 50amp max.
What are three important characteristics of electric circuit?
Voltage, frequency, current, impedance, and what the circuit is supposed to do are all important.
What are the three basic features all electric circuits must have?
Three things that an electrical circuit must have to operate is, A) a source. Example- battery B) a line. Example- conducting wires that allow the electricity to pass through and C) a load. Example- A light bulb
What are the Three basic parts present in every circuit?
your mama boo
Which of the three basic particles in an atom that lacks an electric charge?
neutrons
What is the meaning of resistor?
Resistors are one of the three basic electronic components. They restrict the flow of current in an electrical circuit. Fixed resistors have a fixed value of resistance, and are used in almost every electronic circuit for lots of different reasons.
What can be produced by electrical current in a simple circuit?
There are three effects produced by an electric current:heating effectmagnetic effectchemical effect
What is a Y current?
A Y current is the electric current through one branch of the star arrangement of a three-phase circuit.
What are the main effects produced by the flow of current in an electrical circuit?
There are three effects produced by an electric current:heating effectmagnetic effectchemical effect
What are three features of carbon?
It is an element. It is a basic component of all life on earth. Carbon is one of the elements known since antiquity.
How many type of electric circuit?
There are basically two types of circuits: parallel and series. In a series circuit, current flows in one continuous straight path. In a parallel circuit, the current has more than one path to follow.AnswerThere are four categories of circuit, not two. These are 'series', 'parallel', 'series-parallel', and 'complex'. A 'complex circuit' describes any circuit not falling into the first three categories.
Three electric cells each have a voltage of 1.3Vwhat is the total voltage of the three cells if the cells are connected in parallel?
voltage is still 1.3V in parallel circuit, voltage stays the same but current adds up in series circuit, voltage adds up but current stays the same
What is an elecrtric circuits?
An electric circuit is just a circle of electric wires who connect all sorts of resistances (everything that uses electricity is called a resistance) and an electric source. Example: a battery connected to three lights: (each R represents a bulb) I hope this helps!
