What color is a grounded conductor?
In house wiring it's typically a bare copper wire. It may occasionally be green.
What conductor should be grounded in a four wire three phase system?
The neutral.
Where the ground wire located?
The grounded conductor is usually covered in white or light gray insulation. The grounded conductor is connected to the grounding conductor at one and only one point, usually near the transformer or in the circuit breaker panel.
Can a paralleled grounded conductor be a 2?
A conductor used for grounding of the main service should be a single wire. The code book has a table that states the size of ground wire for different service panel amperages.
The identified grounded circuit conductor is what color?
The identified conductor is white or natural grey in color. If you are using a zip cord (Lamp cord) is is the conductor with the ribs on it.

Why does copper wire have to be insulated?
To stop the conductor from touching adjacent grounded structures.

What happens when there is no plastic coating on a electrical wire?
Nothing happens. The wire will still conduct electricity. An example of this is the overhead utility wiring. The insulation on a conductor is there strictly to keep the conductor from touching any thing that would ground the conductor. This grounding could be from another adjacent conductor or a grounded medium around the conductor. A grounded conductor will trip the over current protection and trip the circuit off line. Without an insulation on the wire multiple wires in a conduit could not be utilized.

A conductor used for grounding of the main service should be a single wire. The code book has a table that states the size of ground wire for different service panel amperages.
What color wire is grounding conductor?
The grounding conductor is green, green with a yellow tracer or bare copper.
What is a Grounded conductor?
The grounded conductor (Neutral) can be white or gray. The grounding conductor can be solid green, Green with a yellow tracer or bare copper.
The identified grounded circuit conductor is what color?
The identified conductor is white or natural grey in color. If you are using a zip cord (Lamp cord) is is the conductor with the ribs on it.
Which wire is grounded positive or negative?
The negative wire is grounded.AnswerThe negative wire is grounded.
Can 1 0 wire be used for both hot wires and ground in a service entrance?
Yes 1/0 wire can be used for both ungrounded( hot wires) and the grounded conductor (neutral).
How make electricity use safe?
Surround the current by an insulator, such as rubber, to prevent the electric shock from leaving the wire or other conductor. Also make sure it is grounded because shock isn't possible on a grounded object.
