Should a home be wired series or parallel?
Always parallel. Homes should never be wired in series. (That would be like the old Christmas tree lights where, if one bulb burned out, the entire string would not light up.)
What are Resistors wired in series?
Resistors are wired in series when they are connected in a line. The current flows through the resistors one after the other.
When lights are wired such that if one bulb fails the entire string of lights goes out they are said to be wired in?
series
What field setting for a dc shunt motor wired in series on high voltage?
A shunt dc motor has quite different characteristics from a series motor. Wired in series, the same current passes through the armature and the field winding and it is most unlikely that a shunt motor would have a field winding that is suitable for this. Therefore a shunt motor cannot be wired as a series motor in general because its field winding is designed for only a small current.
Can the white wire be used as a switched leg?
No, not in the North American electrical system. Opening up a neutral on a three wire circuit could create a series circuit if two devices are plugged into the same receptacle. This is how kitchen counter receptacles are wired in all new homes.
Schools and factories are wired in?
are factorys schools and homes wired in series
Should a home be wired series or parallel?
Always parallel. Homes should never be wired in series. (That would be like the old Christmas tree lights where, if one bulb burned out, the entire string would not light up.)
Why are most homes wired in parallel circuit rather than a series circuit?
Most homes (probably all homes) are wired in a parallel circuit (actually several parallel circuits and a few dedicated circuits) so that in the event of the failure of one device in the circuit, the rest will continue to function.
How are lights in homes wired?
carefully.
What is the duration of Wired TV series?
The duration of Wired - TV series - is 3600.0 seconds.
How are switches in electrical circuits usually wired?
They are wired in parallel, series and series - parallel.
Why are most home wired in a parallel circuit rather than a series circuit?
Most homes (probably all homes) are wired in a parallel circuit (actually several parallel circuits and a few dedicated circuits) so that in the event of the failure of one device in the circuit, the rest will continue to function.
Is a stop switch wired in series?
A stop switch is wired in series with the power supply and the load.
When did Wired - TV series - end?
Wired - TV series - ended on 2008-10-27.
When was Wired - TV series - created?
Wired - TV series - was created on 2008-10-13.
What are Resistors wired in series?
Resistors are wired in series when they are connected in a line. The current flows through the resistors one after the other.
In what circuit are the cells wired up inside the car battery?
They are wired in series.
