What type of circuit is wired so that if one light goes out all the lights go out?
its a series connection
How do you wire a 240 volt street light circuit?
A 240 volt street light circuit is wired in parallel connections. In the base of the street fixture an inline fuse is connected into the circuit that goes up to the fixture to protect the lamp head.
What would happen to a series circuit if another bulb was added?
A: Adding any resistance bulbs or whatever in a series circuit will reduce current and will reduce total power. In this case the bulb will glow dimmer as any additional bulbs are placed in the series circuit. this is true if the same input source is kept constant.
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.
What size breaker do you need for two 60W bulbes 110 volts?
It is not the number of bulbs that you worry about. It is the wire size that is your concern. If the circuit is wired with AWG 12/2 wire then use a 20 amp breaker. If it is wired with a AWG 14/2 wire then use a 15 amp breaker. You are protecting the wiring with the correct size breaker.
When a circuit of light bulbs is wired in such a way that if one light bulb burns out the rest stay lit it is called a circuit?
That would be a parallel circuit.
When a circuit of light bulbs is wired in such a way that if one bulb burns out the rest stay lit it is called a circuit.?
That would be a parallel circuit.
When a circuit of light bulbs is wired in such a way that if one bulb burn out the rest stay lit it is called a circuit?
That would be a parallel circuit.
Compare the current in a 2 light bulbs wired in a series circuit?
Since the SAME electrons have to go through both light bulbs, the current in both light bulbs will be the same (Kirchhoff's current law).
How do you wire two bulbs for one switch?
The two bulbs will be wired in parallel with each other. The switch will be wired into the circuit upstream of the bulbs.
How must a circuit be created so that the rest of the bulbs stay lit if one goes out?
the circuit must be wired in parallel.
When a circuit of light bulbs is wired in such a way that if one bulb burns out the rest stay lit it is called?
The question is ambiguous, however one possibility is a parallel circuit, which would permit one light bulb to remain lit while the other light bulb was switched off. By contrast, if the light bulbs were connected in a series circuit, switching one light bulb off would cause both lights to go off.
There are two light bulbs in a circuit wired in parallel a third light bulb is added agin in parallel what is the effect on total resistance of adding this third bulb?
reduces it from 1/2 to 1/3rd
Why in houses if one bulb is fused the rest of the bulbs continue to glow?
If a circuit is wired in parallel, all the bulbs have their own independent access to electricity, so if one bulb goes out, the others are not affected. If the circuit is wired in series, then one bulb going out will block the current to all the other bulbs as well.
In your house wired for 110-V how many 60 watt light bulbs can you run at the same time without blowing a safety fuse?
Can't answer that w/o knowing the Ampere rating of the fuse. A standard house circuit being 15 amps you would load the circuit up to 14.7 amps with 27 light bulbs.
What would be different if only one light bulb were wired in this circuit instead of two?
I you wired a light bulb in to the same circuit you have the possibility of over loading the circuit but other than that it would just be brighter.
What happens to the brightness of the other two when one of the bulbs burn out three identical bulbs are wired in series?
As a series circuit, as asked, all bulbs will go off because of that just one bulb.
