What is a loop of electrical conductors called?
Electric circuit
What is the role of insulators such as plastic rubber and cloth covering wires and other conductors in a circuit?
Insulators are used to keep electrical currents in the circuit. If they do not follow the entire circuit, it would be a "short circuit".
How do both conductors and insulators help to use electricity?
conductors let electricity through, and insulators don't let it through, so they can help and control the path of the circuit
Why does a switch need to be made out of insulators and conductors?
The conductors carry the electricity around the circuit... the insulators make it safe for people to operate the switch without being electrocuted.
What circuit exists when a conductor of conductive material of low resistance connects across the conductors in a circuit somewhere between the source and the load?
a "short" one
What is a loop of electrical conductors called?
Electric circuit
What do you call materials that let electricity flow though?
Conductors are what the electrons flow through, in a single electric current called a circuit. Hence circuit breakers on conductors.
Could you build a working electric circuit using glass rods as the conductors why or why not?
Could you build a working electric circuit using glass rods as the conductors? Why or why not?
A fuse is used to protect a series circuit?
A fuse can protect the conductors in both a series and parallel circuit.
When two conductors leading from the power source touch medal to medal this is called a what circuit?
Short Circuit
Why the spacing between the conductors of same phase is greater as compared to spacing between different phase conductors in double circuit lines?
I think you mean spacing between line conductors, rather than phase conductors. If there is a greater spacing between line conductors in one circuit, compared with anothercircuit, then the two circuits are operating at different voltages.
What occurs when two adjacent conductors make electrical contact and by pass a portion of the circuit?
That is called a short circuit.
What is a path formed by the conductors for electrons?
That path might be called a circuit. If the path is complete, it's a closed circuit.
What is the problem if you connect smaller sized conductors from the source side and bigger sized conductors to the load side in the electrical circuit?
rds
Why do electric circuits need to use conductors?
Without conductors, electrons do not flow where you want them to flow. An electrical circuit is a flow of electrons.
What is electrical splice?
The joining together of two or more conductors in an electric circuit.
Can a three phase circuit be installed in the same conduit or in different conduits?
The conductors of any three phase circuit must be run in the same conduit. If the circuit requires a neutral, it must also run with the conductors in the same conduit. (If they were to be run in more than one conduit or raceway, the circuit would not operate properly.)
