What is the most common type energy loss in a electrical device?
thermal/heat energy
Do electrical wire cables have to be clamped with cable connectors when they enter electrical panel box?
For cable not in conduit and intended to be installed without conduit, such as NM cable, yes. You must provide some form of connector that will hold the cable in place. A clamp is not the only kind of connector that will do this but is the most common.
What is the most common way to store electrical energy?
With batteries. For more information see the answer to the Related Question shown below.
What is the minimum size service cconduit for a 100 amp service?
If the service stack is supported by a support structure and the utility feed drop is not supported from the conduit, the size of the conduit can be 1 1/4". If the service stack is used to support the utility feed drop then the conduit has to be 2" schedule 40 conduit. The reasoning behind this is that if in a storm a tree limb falls across the service drop, the lighter weight conduit could bend and pinch the wires in the stack and short out. This would be ahead of the main service breaker and the only protection for the wire would be the primary fuse at the transformer. Theoretically this amperage could rise to 50000 amps before the primary fuse blows. A schedule 40 service stack if supported, as the code requires, will withstand most tree falls. What is most likely to happen is that the utility connectors will pull apart leaving the service stack intact.
Does commercial electrical wiring have to be in conduit if it is behind a wall covering?
It depends on whether the building classification is combustible or non combustible. On a new commercial building wiring is usually designed by an electrical engineer. In this case the wiring is done to their specifications. On a rewire of a commercial building BX cable can be used behind wall board. The reasoning is that most commercial buildings these days use steel studs. Dragging ordinary NMD wire through these types of studs can cut the outer sheath. In some jurisdictions steel stud bushings have to be used when a steel stud is hole punched. By using this type of wiring cable, rigid conduit or EMT does not have to be used.
What is steel conduit?
Conduit is piping for electrical wiring. Steel conduit is the most common conduit used. It is often left visible in industrial atmospheres and can be seen running to electrical outlets, lighting panels, electrical panels, etc.
