A mechanical switching device, capable of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal circuit conditions. Also capable of making and carrying for a specified time and breaking currents under specified abnormal circuit conditions, such as those of a short circuit.

How does a ground fault circuit interrupter work?
== == If the current in an ac power circuit is not balanced between hot and neutral, possibly meaning some of the current is going through a human being to ground, a GFCI breaker or receptacle will break the circuit to keep the person from being electrocuted.
Which forms of potential energy are inside a battery circuit?
The form of potential energy inside of a battery is electrical energy travel inside the circuit. It takes cells inside the battery don't recharge, the cells are dead.
What is a picture of the inside of the human body produced by ultrasound?
The answer is a sonogram
Why is your shower switch getting hot?
Likely an exposed wire inside the fixture or junction box. Get an real electrician to install GFCI lights and outlets anywhere you are using water to prevent being electrocuted . GFCI means Ground Fault Circuit Interuptors.
How does the GFCI prevent serious injury from electric current?
Inside the GFCI is an electrical device that constantly compares the current on the two wires of an electrical circuit. If, at any time, the electrical device detects an imbalance, the GFCI shuts off the circuit. Most electrical shocks occur when a person touches the LIVE wire of a circuit while grounded in some other way (such as standing barefooted on concrete). The GFCI detects that imbalance and shuts off the circuit so quickly that we often don't even feel the shock. As a word of caution, don't depend on the GFCI as a substitute for common sense. If you aren't touching some kind of grounded surface, the GFCI will not function. In that situation you are nothing more than another resistance load. Also, if you feel that the GFCI will protect you and ignore normal caution around electricity, you may encounter a circuit that is either NOT protected with a GFCI, or you may encounter a GFCI that has failed. Either way, always use caution when doing anything with electricity.
What is the symbol for special-purpose outlets?
The symbol for special-purpose outlets can vary depending on the specific purpose. For example, the symbol for a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet is a rectangle with two vertical lines and a curved line inside. The symbol for an AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet typically includes a rectangle with the letters AFCI inside.
What is the difference between inside and outside electrical boxes?
An outside electrical box has a watertight in-use outlet cover so even when a cord is plugged in the outlet stays covered. That is the main difference between the outside box and inside box. An outside box also uses a ground fault circuit interrupter.
What is the second function of circuit breaker?
The two functions a circuit breaker can do is protect the circuit from a high current short circuit and through its thermal trip it can protect the circuit from overload conditions. A circuit breaker will trip if too large a draw or current flow occurs across a thermal shunt inside, it can also have a ground fault circuit interrupter integrated internally in case of a difference in potential between neutral and ground resulting from voltage leakage from appliances or to protect against potential electrocutions A double circuit breaker provides access to the 2 legs of 120V in the back plane on the breaker panel. There are now typically 4 wires away from this breaker, a bare ground or earth ground, a white wire for neutral or bonded ground, a black wire for 1 leg of 120 and a red or blue wire for the 2nd leg of 120. You can use either leg and the white wire to access 120 or use the black and red/blue to access 240, white would then be used on the 3rd plug and ground goes to the ground lug or if missing it ties with the white and goes on the 3rd leg.

What is a stereogram?
it is a picture that has a picture inside of it.
What make your Jeeps headlights go on and off when turned on?
Probably got a loose ground in the circuit somewhere. Loose connections inside the switch are another possibility.
What does picture in a picture mean?
when there is a picture in a picture, we use the term, "inscribing" This is because, there is a picture, inside another picture.
Why does a circuit work?
It works with a connected wire and all the components inside a circuit.
Which forms of potential energy are inside a battery circuit?
The form of potential energy inside of a battery is electrical energy travel inside the circuit. It takes cells inside the battery don't recharge, the cells are dead.
Why does the wire from the fuse box to the head light switch burn up?
Check the headlight fuse that's INSIDE the box. If an oversized fuse has been put in the fusebox you will have problems with the wire overheating whenever there is a problem in the circuit. There is a short circuit (wire touching chassis ground) somewhere in the lighting circuit, but the wire is burning because an oversized fuse has been put in the circuit.
What is the error code P1762 on a 1997 ram van 2500?
There is a whole list of testing procedures but you need a DRBII scan tool to do the tests.

It takes about 1 hour total to do the job in your driveway. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REMOVE THE VALVE BODY Once the pan is dropped and the filter is removed you will notice the wiring laced threw-out the valve body. These lead to your GPS and Transducer solenoid. I didn't want to go the dealer route and pay big bucks for the Governor Pressure sensor and Governor Pressure solenoid. With a little online searching I found Transtar Industries, Inc. at www.transtarindustries.com Part numbers where 20A-120A for the sensor and 5A-303 for the solenoid. The prices quoted me were just over $120 for both parts. This was $100s better than what the dealer quoted me. This was for a 1997 46RE transmission. Also applies to the 47RE trans.

Is a fuse a circuit?
a fuse is a way to secure a circuit from owerload, so a fuse is in a way a circuit in a circuit that owerload itself and breake the circuit inside itself to not damege the rest of the circuit. OR some thing conected to that sircuit.
