What wire carries the electrical current to the appliance?
The black wire is the hot wire through which the electrical current flows to the appliance. The left over voltage which is usually zero flows back to the main circuit panel through the white neutral wire where it flows to ground.
What is a open hot?
A open hot, is simply a broken connection on your "hot wire" or the wire that carries the voltage from your breaker to your device. Typically these connection are broken either at the device e.g., outlet, switch, etc. or they are cause by a poor connection in a wire nut.
How much voltage can a 20 gauge wire carry?
The voltage does not depend on the gauge of the wire, but on the thickness and type of insulation.
White wire a black wire a red wire and a bare wire?
white wire = neutral bare wire = ground black wire = line voltage red wire = returned from a switch, or the other phase of line voltage in order to supply 240VAC
What gage wire do you use for 15 amps 200 feet?
This is a voltage drop question. To answer this question a voltage has to be stated. The higher the voltage to the circuit becomes the smaller the wire size needed. After a certain voltage point the wire size will remain constant and the voltage drop at the load will become smaller.
In an IEC-320 plug which wire carries electrical voltage?
the hot wire carries the electrical voltage
What is a current-carrying wire?
A wire with some resistance and a voltage applied to it The amount of current I passing this wire is V/R
Why does the cable from the power supply to the motherboard have different colored wires?
Each wire carries a different voltage.

What is the measure of the voltage decrease along a wire?
Decrease or reduction of voltage along the wire is called voltage drop. It is measure through wire and load resistance difference.
Is cat5 wire considered low voltage?
Yes. cat6 is low voltage / signal wire.
The voltage drop in line can be decreased by?
The voltage drop in a line can be decreased by
What happens to voltage when wire length increase?
When the length of the wire increases voltage drop across the wire will occur.There are two factors that can result in voltage drop. One diameter of the wire, two length of the wire.Voltage drop increases with increase in length of wire, whereas voltage drop decreases with increase in diameter (cross section area) of the wire.G.RAOAnswerIf you are asking what happens to the voltage across a length of wire when its length increases, the answer is nothinghappens! The voltage applied to the wire is determined by the supply, not by the load (i.e. the wire).
What is a short to voltage in an automobile?
A short to voltage is when a wire that should not have battery voltage has battery voltage. This would happen if a wire had rubbed through another wire. The other cause would be an electrical component failing and sending voltage down a wire that it shouldn't. NOTE: Shorts to voltage are very uncommon. I specialize in electrical automotive repair, and I can not even recall one time I have seen a short to voltage.
For voltage to be induced from one stationary wire to another one wire must have what type of flow?
for uhmm voltage?:)
How much voltage can a 20 gauge wire carry?
The voltage does not depend on the gauge of the wire, but on the thickness and type of insulation.
