Where is a thermostat wired to. And what part of the system will it effect to operate?
JakeCraigClarke
A thermostat is just a device that keeps the temperature of something constant. They are probably most commonly encountered as part of a central heating or air conditioning unit in your home or office. Thermostats can operate in a range of ways but more often than not they will use a combination of two metals. As temperature changes the electrical properties of these metals change (see Ohm's law). Because the two metals change at different rates they can be compared with each other to establish the temperature - different metal pairings are used for different temperature ranges. The temperature data is then sent through an electrical signal to a boiler or air conditioning unit which will heat or cool the room as required.

Why is my heater constantly running in my house?
Thermostat turned all the way up,thermostat defective, thermostat wired incorrectly, heating unit wired incorrectly, fan or heat relay stuck closed are the things I would look at to start.

Your furnace and air conditioner run at the same time?
Your thermostat or condenser is wired wrong on the control side. Usually there is a terminal inside your furnace that has the same connection colors (Y, W, R, G, C) as your thermostat. It should be connected color to color to the thermostat with the 2 wires from the condenser wired to Y and C.
If you have a light and one switch that controls it what are the light and the switch wired in?
A light controlled by a switch are necessarily wired in "series", meaning that the electricity must pass through all components if the circuit is to operate correctly, assuming you actually have a source of electricity wired in as well.
What is the main disadvantage of wired systems?
The main disadvantage of wired system is that they are very complex. The wiring increases the complexity of the systems.
How is a heat anticipator wired in a system?
Parallel with the cooling contacts
Can Xbox wireless and wired controllers be used together on a system?
yes they can, i have one wired and three wireless and they work together perfectly
Temperature gauge on a 1990 mercury topaz isn't working what could it be after i changed the thermostat?
You most definately unpluged the sensor wire. It's a single red wired that plugs onto a sensor just passed the thermostat.
Does a refrigerator have parallel and series circuits?
A Refrigerator is technically a series because if one wire goes out all of the others go out
Cooling fans won't engage fuses and relays are good fan runs when wired direct any suggestions?
check the thermostat that runs the fan.
What does it mean when your air conditions unit runs constantly?
Is the theremostat set to Fan On? If not, is your house getting to the set temperature? If it is there could be a problem with the thermostat or it is wired incorrectly.
