What else can I help you with?
An electrical device in the current path that melts or breaks when current exteeds a predetermined maximum value?
The device you are referring to is a fuse. It is designed to protect electrical circuits by breaking the circuit when the current exceeds a safe level, thus preventing damage to the device or overheating. Fuses can be easily replaced once they have blown.
Why do you need neutral if things work with earth connection since both r at same potential?
Neutral is the common return, and it expected to be a current carrying conductor. Earth (or ground), on the other hand, is a protective conductor that is not expected to carry current. It is there to provide a path for current in the event of fault, and to trip the protective device, i.e. fuse or circuit breaker. Earth is also not usually insulated, so it is not rated to carry current other than long enough to trip the protective device.
Which electrical protective device is designed to detect a difference in current location in circuit wires?
A) Outlet plug B) Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) C) Electricity Read Monitor D) Current Path Detector
What is the electrical device that causes a limitation or reduction in current?
Ressistance, A ressistance causes reduction and limitation in the path of current.
What are devices are connected so that there is only one one path for current to follow?
In a series circuit, devices are connected in a single path so that the current flows through each device in sequence. If one device fails or is removed, the circuit will be broken, and no current will flow.
How does low impedance ground Fault current path help in the operation of the overcurrent device?
AND thennnnnnnn, comprate UN relo
Current will flow as long as the power supply is good and there's a power-control device true or false?
Current will flow as long as there is a difference of potential (a voltage) and a path for current to flow. So no power-control device is required for current flow but yes it will flow with a power control decive.
What does the earth pin do on a 3 pin plug?
The earth, or ground, pin on a 3 pin plug is a connection to safety ground. It is intended to be connected to the chassis of the appliance, in such a way that operational current neverflows on that conductor. The intention is that, if hot were to become shorted to chassis, then fault current would flow and the protective device in the distribution panel would trip. This works because ground and neutral are connected together in the distribution panel, and only in the distribution panel. It is also possible that, if the circuit is protected with a GFCI (Ground Fault Current Interrupting) protective device, then even slight imbalances between hot and neutral, i.e. partial current flow on ground, would trip the protective device.The earth, or ground, pin on a 3 pin plug is a connection to safety ground.

What kind of circuit provides a path for current to wall sockets and appliances in a home?
A parallel circuit provides a path for current to flow to wall sockets and appliances in a home. In a parallel circuit, each device is connected in a separate branch from the power source, allowing current to flow independently to each device. This setup allows appliances to operate independently and provides a safety feature where one device can still operate if another fails.
Differetiate between solid earthing and ELCB?
ELCB is the connection to the direct earth path using protective device.while solid earthing is without protective device.A form of ELCB should be installed when direct earth path of low enough impendance can not be obtained.
What is an current path detector?
A current path detector is an electronic device or system used to identify and monitor the flow of electric current in a circuit. It helps in detecting the presence of current, determining the direction of flow, and identifying potential faults or irregularities in electrical systems. Current path detectors are commonly employed in safety systems, industrial applications, and troubleshooting processes to ensure proper functioning and safety of electrical installations.
What is the purpose of the live and neutral wires in an electrical circuit?
The live wire carries the current to the electrical device, while the neutral wire completes the circuit by providing a return path for the current.
