connect the bulb to electricity
There are two terminals on an electric bulb whether AC or DC.
the negative terminals
normally active and neutral power
to prevent escape of air inside bulb
One Terminal Is for Positive And Another Is Negative Wier . Bulb Can't Glow Until Both The Terminals Are Connected
A voltage is applied across the terminals of the light fixture to which the bulb is attached by two terminals, hot and neutral. A current then flows through the bulb. In an incandescent light the filament wire heats up and glows.
Special-purpose terminals
A bulb is said to be fused if the filament gets broken . Fused bulb doesn't glow. The two terminals do not directly touch each other to avoid short circuit.
An emergency light switch uses a relay. A relay has an 5 terminals. The firs two terminals are connected to a flowing current (current flows when there is a normal electricity) The next 3 terminals are the common, the normally on, and normally off. One of the battery terminal is connected to the common, and the other one terminal of the battery is connected to one terminal of the light bulb(which has two terminals) then the other terminal of the light bulb is connected to the normally on terminal of the relay. When current flows to the first two mentioned terminals of the relay, the circuit of the battery and light is cut off or not connected. But when the current is off, this will switch on the normally-on terminal thus current will flow from the battery to the light bulb, that will shed light. ;) on an emergency situation. note: The normally off is not use. And may be use for some purpose.
Garden bulbs do not have to terminals they have a shoot at one end and roots at the other. Light bulbs have two terminals because the filament needs to be part of a circuit so the electricity can flow. The terminals are where the electricity flows in and out.
pull out the bulb and place ohm meter on correct terminals
Small bulb like structures at the end of an Axon are called Terminals or Terminal Buttons.
