Single phase 4 pole Gen alt w 240V 60hz output no neutral. you check from each lead to ground and get 50-70V How do you get a neutral for connecting Gen to a standard breaker box having 240V and 120V?

Neutral is at the jumper that changes it from 120v to 240v. Two stator windings are used in series to make 240v; at that junction is (when wired in Series)your neutral/common/ground. Ground this terminal and use it for your neutral/common. When wired in parallel you have 110v and the jumper is removed and there is no common/neutral and ground is from the frame of the generator.


Why are wires twisted together on a GFCI outlet box?

The ground wires are twisted together and then connected to the GFCI ground. The black and white wires may also be twisted together and then using a jumper wire connected to the GFCI. Hard to say without seeing exactly how it is wired.


The moment a ski jumper lands has all of his potential energy been changed to kinetic energy?

Yes, as long as the reference point was the ground. Potential energy is completely based on the reference point, as U = mgh, h being the height.

In a home circuit are the neutral and ground bare wires always connected?

They are always connected, but at one and only one place, the service entrance. For instance, if you are adding a subpanel to an existing house, the subpanel will probably come with the ground bus and the neutral bus tied together with a special bonding screw. To be legal, you must remove this screw, isolating the neutral from ground. The house's main panel still has the bonding screw or jumper in place, and remains the only place the connection is made.

Some older wire does not have a ground. All you can do in that case is use a jumper wire to connect the ground to the neutral.

How do you jump start a 1999 c230 without accessing the battery?

Positive jumper to starter, or anyplace along the electrical system. Negative to ground. But whats the big deal about accessing the battery...in the trunk rather than the hood? where is the starter in c230?


Can you ground a wall outlet by running a jumper wire from the neutral terminal to the ground screw?

Not correctly , It will show on a tester that it is grounded but you should run a separate ground for it to be properly grounded


Where do you put jumper cables on a Chevy suburban battery?

The proper way to use jumper cables to boost a low/dead battery: (1) one end of positive jumper cable to "dead" battery; (2) opposite end of positive jumper cable to "good" battery; (3) one end of negative jumper cable to "good" battery; (4) opposite end of negative jumper cable to GROUND on "dead" vehicle. Remove jumper cables in reverse order.

How do you get back up after bungee jumping?

It depends on what the person jumps off of. If it is off of a bridge usually after jumping a rope is lowered down to the person and the person attaches the rope to their harness with a carabiner. Then the people on the bridge all pull together at the same time and the jumpers is slowly pulled back up. And on other bridges sometimes the jumper is lowered down. The entire bungee cord is lowered down by being attached to a rope at the top of the bridge. The rope travels through a series of pulleys and through a rope brake which controls the descent. the jumper is either lowered to the ground or onto a boat below and the bungee cord is removed by a crew member.


What causes a 1989 Chrysler New Yorker to suddenly lose Spark?

I changed coil, bad fuel and starter relay, distributor cap and rotor. Still no spark. I ran jumper from negative coil terminal to body and the car started up. I disconnected the jumper while car was still running and car stopped-spark emitted from jumper. This was a mistake. Car will not spark again. Yes-do not disconnect any electrical while car is running. I am back to square one, but I believe I narrowed my original problem down to a bad/open wire/connection within the ground to the coil. I will now follow the black/white negative wire for faulty/open connection or bad ground. Any suggestions?


A long jumper leaves the ground at an angle 20 to horizontal and at speed of 11ms.how far does he jump and what the maximum height reached?

Making the improbable assumption that the jumper experiences no air resistance, he will jump 3.97 metres, and reach a height of 0.72 metres.
