How you would wire an electrical circuit?
There are many types of electrical circuits and each one is wired differently. Without knowing the specific circuit that needs to be wired, this question can not be answered.
The drawing of an electrical circuit is called a?
schematic drawing
What does an enameled wire that's wrapped around an iron nail connected to an electrical circuit create?
An electromagnet.
What is happening when you turn an electric circuit off?
When you switch off an electrical circuit you tend to create a 'break' in the circuit, preventing the electric current to flow around the circuit, this can be caused by a simple switch or a break in the circuit, e.g a disconnected wire.
What occurs when two adjacent conductors make electrical contact and by pass a portion of the circuit?
That is called a short circuit.
Where does the wire come from in an electrical circuit?
The wire comes from the installer or manufacturer of the circuit.
What job does a wire do in a circuit?
The wire in a circuit helps to pass power to the electrical appliances.
What is this is the energy associated with movement of electrons through a wire or circuit?
That's called electrical energy.
What type of electrical circuit will be broken if a wire breaks?
Current will cease to flow in a series electrical circuit.
Why does an electrical circuit have a copper wire?
If you mean a bare copper wire, that is the "ground" wire.
Conducor in a battery that collects or emits electrons?
In a battery, or voltaic pile, the negative terminal or wire, called the anode, emits electrons in an electrical circuit. The other terminal, called the cathode, collects electrons in an electrical circuit.
The drawing of an electrical circuit is called?
The drawing of an electrical circuit is called a.............= schematic drawing.
In electrical circuits what wire protects the operator?
Earth wire is meant to protect the user in case there is earth fault in the device or circuit. Only earth wire alone is not sufficient. It needs to be provided with suitable circuit breaker that breaks the circuit automatically.
What wire discharges excess electricity to the earth?
A ground to earth completes an electrical circuit in some cases. The wire is called the ground or grounding wire, and often has green insulation.
Is it dangerous for a earth wire to be hanging in the kitchen?
No. An earth wire (commonly called a ground wire) has no current flowing through it. It is simply a wire connected to the ground to discharge electrical current in a circuit.
Can aluminum be used to close an electrical circuit?
Of course. Aluminum is not the best, but it IS used for electrical wire.
What is a electrical circuit?
An electrical circuit is a path which electrons from a current source flow. Electric current flows in a closed path called an electric circuit. The point where those electrons enter an electrical circuit is called the "source" of electrons. The point where the electrons leave an electrical circuit is called the "return". The exit point is called the "return" because electrons always end up at the source when they complete the path of an electrical circuit. The part of an electrical circuit that is between the electrons' starting point and the point where they return to the source is called an electrical circuit's "load". ---Nerd
